I realise this must be an FAQ, but I can't find it, so please don't flame
me!  I have some ADA source, which I want to turn into a Windows 95 DLL.
Trouble is, I don't know how to do a DLL in ADA - I'm not an ADA person - so
I wonder if some kind soul has a skeleton DLL and compile scripts etc, which
would get me started.  Or perhaps someone could point me in the right
direction.

The program - it is William Whitaker's Latin dictionary program "Whitaker's
Words", which he's been kind enough to let me experiment with - loads a
bunch of data, and then I need to pass in a string and get back a string
(from that data).

Any info gratefully accepted.

TIA,

Roger Pearse
