are there any FREE languages that let you create .dll files so that you can create your own commands without shelling out?

Also Dev-Pascal with the FreePascal compiler is quite good.
It's widely Delphi 2 compatible, but misses some of the more advanced features newer Delphi verions have like dynamic arrays. And it's surprisingly fast, too.

Just for giggles, can VB activeX DLLs be used? Not that I have a need, but you never know...

No ... or yes, but only if you wrap their functionality in a standard DLL

Borland still offers their C++ compiler for free (I believe). Check out http://www.borland.com/products/downloads/download_cbuilder.html#.
