I have a DLL and one of it's procedures is:

AppPath() ;supposed to return a string: "c:\bob\"

Using CallFuntion() or CallFunctionFast()... all I get for
return values are numeric. Not string values. The help file
simply states:

'Result' contains the result of the called function."

How can I return string values from CallFunction() or CallFunctionFast()?

If you are only able to return values, just return a pointer to your string. Only as a Tip or did I understand something wrong!?
