I have all of the manuals. However it only seems to be for C++. I am using
VB6. I need to know how to reference the API functions themselves inside of
VB.

As an example I use a md5 dll to calculate all my MD5 file checksums. It
was written in C++, but was made so that VB6 could reference it. I don't
claim to know how. I just understand that you have write dll's in specific
ways to allow programming languages to access them.

Private Declare Sub MDFile Lib "aamd532.dll" (ByVal f As String, ByVal r As
String)
Private Declare Sub MDStringFix Lib "aamd532.dll" (ByVal f As String, ByVal
t As Long, ByVal r As String)

Also, i frequently use the Windows API functions. A typical reference looks
like:

Declare Function FileTimeToLocalFileTime Lib "kernel32" Alias
"FileTimeToLocalFileTime" (lpFileTime As FILETIME, lpLocalFileTime As
FILETIME) As Long

This is why i previously mentioned that I dont really have the skill to find
out all the statements to declare all the Interbase API functions. What the
manual does tell you is that isc_dsql_execute is a function that you can use
to execute a previously prepared dsql statement. It defines all the passed
parameters and how to use it. However, it does not tell me how to make the
reference statment inside of VB6.

I beleive that if I had all those statements, that I could, through trial
and error, eventually create a working frontend that would use classes built
around those functions.
It would no doubt, be at least one order faster then the OLEDB providers. I
can get from b to c, i just cant get from a to b here.
