If C is supported, then Cobol is supported. If the DLL follows standard calling conventions, it doesn't matter what language it was written in. As a matter of fact, I have some DLL's that I wrote in Cobol, and they are being called from a VB app in exactly the same way that same VB app is calling Win API functions.
