One way would be to use a technique called "flat thunking".

For more information on thunking, read the Knowledge Base article Q125710
on MSDN Level 1 CD, "Types of Thunking Available in Win32 Platforms."  That
article can most likely be found on ftp.microsoft.com somewhere.

Re:Calling 16-bit DLL's from Delphi 2.0


Well, does anyone know how to do it?

I've just received Delphi 2.0 developer and my components that access 16 bit
dll's won't work. Of course I suspected this might be so, but I was sure
someone posted something about doing just this.

Any help would be appreciated.
