HI,

I'm currently passing several VB macros to AHK.

Some of these would refer to dll's, in the context of Dragon Naturally Speaking. In VB I would write :

#Reference {5C486340-2F92-11D1-A47C-00A024A3A678}#1.0#0#C:\Program Files (x86)\Nuance\NaturallySpeaking15\Program\dnstk10.dll#Dragon NaturallySpeaking ActiveX Controls#DNSTools

In AHK I tried
#DllLoad "C:\Program Files (x86)\Nuance\NaturallySpeaking15\Program\dnstk10.dll"

Can sdy orient me on what I do wrong ? Please ?

Thanks

Can't find this kinda "command" within AHK's Help. Neither for v1 nor v2. So, why do you expect it to work out in the first place??
Have you checked out AHK's DllCall() already?

dllload is a v2 directive. it does a win32 LoadLibrary for u, while also pinning the dll, though it's not necessarily needed if all u want to do is invoke a function from the dll. for doing that, there is DllCall(but make sure to read the docs remarks carefully)

thanks both of you. I was not aware of https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/DllCall.htm

It seems complex at 1st sight. I'll dig into it when i got more time
