How does one run a dll library?

What a dll provides is a set of exported functions that you can call. As
far as your program is concerned, they are treated essentially the same as
functions in your own code. You no more run a dll library than you run a
function in your code.

If you wish to do some processing while a function in a dll is also
executing, consider creating a second thread and calling the dll function
while in the context of that new thread. For a way to start a new thread,
look in the help at the description of the functions _beginthread and
_beginthreadNT and in the Win32 help topic Processes and Threads. (Avoid
calling CreateThread - use _beginthread or _beginthreadNT instead.)
