i don't see why not. as long as you use whatever calling conventions DBP likes and you don't use any COM... psh, probably should.

stop looking at me!

You should be able to get MASM to work if you use the flat memory model

Or create your DLL within Visual C++ and instead of writing the code in C, write it in assembler? (good luck).

Cheers,

Assembler is SO over-rated

Indeed,I Really see the same Speed in C++,So Im droping Assembly to code some C++....(GF is away,so i have time to do some real work,lol)
anyways,If ur using an assembly optimized high level language,you get thet same effect,the code just may be a little bigger,buti dont care

If you code in asm / powerbasic, you will notice not much difference in speed between the PB / ASM code. In one instance, I managed to shave off 1 sec off a routine using ASM, made me wonder what was the point in putting all that effort just for that piece of code ... powerbasic is programmed in hand optimised assembler and fast enough anyways, ASM is not even necessary unless you're planning to run your code on old 486's
