I need to automate an application but I'm clueless on how to this. The
program was written in the mid 90's (I think 1994) and reports itself as an
MFC Application. I basically need the majority, if not all, of the
functionality that the program's GUI provides. Any suggestions on how to
accomplish this? What Windows libraries do I need to use?

What program is it? Do you have the source code?

The program is called BioWorks (it's used to control pipet machines) and I
don't have the source code. All that have are the .dll's and etc that came
with it. Is what I'm trying to do even possible.

Maybe. You have to ask the company that made this product. I assume this
link describes the product.
