You need to import 3 dlls:

the MSDN has a good article on the appropriate way to import these dlls to call those various functions.

I will only tell you how to do it, not do it for you.
Unless, of course, you want to hire me to do work for you.

Could you give a link (or more) to the MSDN article? (Or the title if it is in the MSDN that loads with .NET?)

thanks dparsons,
