How do I call DPlot from my Visual Basic program?
By far the easiest way is to link your program with DPLOTLIB.DLL. This developer’s tool is included with the DPlot Jr distribution and also as a separate download. DPLOTLIB works with either the full version of DPlot or DPlot Jr (it will always choose the full version if both are installed). Example programs with full Visual Basic (C and FORTRAN, too) source code are included. Documentation is included with the distribution and is also available online. In almost all cases DPLOTLIB will be sufficient for your needs. In some instances you may want more direct control over DPlot through DDE (dynamic data exchange) calls. We have you covered here as well. Source code examples in Visual Basic, Excel VBA, and C are included in the DDE examples.
