within C#, you first need to add a reference to that DLL,
from Add References in the Server Explorer(if at all u
have the VS.NET) else, you could specify the reference in
the CSC command at the .NET command prompt.

Next, add the following line within your code.
using <theDLLName>;

Once done, you could use

<theDLLName>.ClassName oMyObject = new
<theDLLName>.ClassName();

This creates an object of your class.

Next.. well, you already knew...
oMyObject.<TheFunctionName>

Thats it

Actually, it has nothing to do with the name of the DLL, instead it's the
namespace.class[.nestedClass].
Namespaces don't have to relate to the DLL name. I can have a DLL called
"x.dll" with namespace "Fun".
