If the program is relatively small it is relatively simple to
convert it to a DLL.

It is easiest if you have the CFX Wizard that will install
into Visual Studio when you install CF on the machine..
Alternatively if you are having errors getting the wizard
to install I could mail it to you off list.
If all the code is written all that has to be done is the
tag is set up to accept the input in CFX style..

<CFX_GenPassword Input1="yadda yadda" Input2="yaddaYadda".....>

It should take a minimal amount of C/C++ coding to
make the program work with the inputs from the API CF
supplies for C++.  Likewise it is just as easy to
return output from the dll.

I have just recently been reading over the API and it was
definately designed to 'act' like CF as much as possible

YEs, we have the source code.  It's actually a proprietary application made
by our own programmers to generate a password for our software.  I believe
it's written in C.  The functions of the program are fairly basic.  It asks
about 10 questions (INPUT), and gives one answer depending on the input
(OUTPUT).

Our programmers are very capable.  I just need to know where to look so i
can ask them for this knowledgeably and answer any questions they may have
from the get go.  Or at least know ehre to send them for the answers they
need.  I would imagine we just need a means of giving the dll input and then
getting the output via a variable.

Thanks..

Have you got the source code ??? What language was it written in? What does
it do?
