You can use the dllimport attribute for straight api dll's. MSDN example shown below in C#: [C#] [DllImport("KERNEL32.DLL", EntryPoint="MoveFileW", SetLastError=true, CharSet=CharSet.Unicode, ExactSpelling=true, CallingConvention=CallingConvention.StdCall)] public static extern bool MoveFile(String src, String dst); -Mike

You can only use COM components using COM Interop (Add Reference). If your dll is not a COM dll then it will not work.
