Thanks. I downloaded a reflector from: http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet/
By using that I could see that the module in question was declared friend (default, if not specified.. I guess), not public. I made it public and can now access the functions within it. So the compiler didn't mangle anything, it was just me not knowing what I was doing :). But your idea worked anyway. Thanks again.
