Did I miss something?

MC/RR supports the creation and use of an external which is implemented 
as a DLL in Windows.  I assume such a DLL can call functions in other 
pre-built DLLs.

Now being able to call functions in arbitrary DLLs would be cool, but I 
haven't heard this announced.  I enjoyed this when I used LabView.  I 
just filled out a little form and in my code was a call to a DLL.  In 
both environments there will probably be limitations.

Now only if we could get the calling parameter types and other info.  
And get them to make callbacks.  And Handle complex data.  And call 
across networks.  And...  Oh, yeah, if only COM, DCOM, Automation, 
Active X.
