[TRNSYS-users] Drop-in dll, cannot call external functions

Ivy,
 I would guess that you need to add the file TRNDll.lib to your external 
DLL project. An "unresolved external" error means that the code was 
looking for something (usually a function or a subroutine) that it can't 
find. In this case, the definition of the function 
"getSimulationStartTime()" and the subroutine "TYPECK" are both 
contained in the TRNDll.lib file.
Kind regards,
 David
