If I build a dll with my VC++ Express 2010 then I can convert the import library and it actually works from D. However if I build with MinGW GCC it doesn't even recognise the library even though it is COFF format. My preferred route unfortunately is GCC. I just got 'The D Programming Language' book and that devotes a whole half page to this very important topic. This seems to be rather a minefield and so far there only seems to be one route through it.
