If the resources allow, you could always write a small command-line driven Windows app that passes arguments through to the DLL functions and returns the results? Then exec() the app. It's a bit too messy for my liking, but it's certainly an option. Cheers, Rich -- Zend Certified Engineer http://www.launchcode.co.uk
