Its a little more complicated then that :-) You need to know how to handle
input and ouput params etc...
If you are using VisualC++ there is a template to get u started.
(I think there is a KB article on how to install it if you haven't got it)
Have your programmer look at the source code of some of the freeware cfx on
intrafoundations site and you'll see the structure.....
