Remarks

The LastDLLError property is relevant only to 32-bit Windows systems. It applies only to DLL calls that require a Declare statement within the Visual Basic code. When such a call is made, the called function usually returns a code indicating success or failure, and the LastDLLError property is filled. Check the documentation for the DLL’s functions to determine what return values indicate success or failure. Whenever the failure code is returned, the Visual Basic application should immediately check the LastDLLError property. No exception is raised when the LastDLLError property is set.
