Eeek!  Does this mean I can throw away RDNZL if I upgrade to the new
Visual Studio?  Actually, I have the CDs/DVDs already lying around
here but didn't find the time to install it yet.

I'd be VERY happy if someone knowledgeable enough with Managed C++ and
C++/CLR could enlighten me...

   (import-types "ClassLibrary1" "Class1")

works for me if the DLL is in the LispWorks folder.

That's not necessary.  The variable is globally special.
