How do you manipulate DBPro's objects and cameras from a DLL? Like, move object up uses a DLL to move the object up.

-C gives you enough rope to hang yourself. C++ also gives you the tree object to tie it to.

I think you have to access some globstruct class...
I haven't messed around with theese things for quite some time though.

OK, that narrows it down to about 500 variables...

Which classes? There are files included in files included in Globstruct, so any one of these files could have what I am looking for.

Look in this thread, where the poster asked basically the same question. There are some real answers there.

Basically you need to make calls to the DBP DLLs which actually contain the commands (like DBProBasic3DDebug.DLL) and call the command from within it. Essentially you're doing the exact same thing as calling whatever command from within DBP itself. The thread I linked to has some tips which narrow down a bit more how to call the commands from the DLLs, but if you need more help it should be in your documentation or on MSDN.

edit hmm... maybe I should be more mindful of post dates this board doesn't seem to be quite as active as the others...
