I am developing an application on Visual Foxpro 7. I would like to inculde
some .NET functions in it.
For this purpose I have created a dll in VC++ .net using managed c++. I have
written all the code in the .h file. What should I write in the .cpp file to
enable me to use the file like the mfc dll??

Does Visual Foxpro 7 support .NET? If yes, a managed dll is a different thing than an MFC dll.

To use a managed dll written in any language inside VC++ 2002/2003, we use the statement:

#using "whatever.dll"

Hello,

FoxPro doesn't integrate with Net directly ..
you'll have to use COM interop

there is tool shipped with VS Net called "tlbexp.exe" which can create a COM
typelibrary out of an assembly ..
