Compiled C Dll Can't Set Pointer When Called From ASP.NET App?

I've got a 3rd party C application that's compiled to a non-.NET non-COM DLL. It has one simple function declared like so: Declare Function CapiTaxRoutine Lib "taxcommono.dll" (ByVal sInData As String, ByVal OutputData As String, ByVal intINPutLength As Long) As Integer

If I place the taxcommono.dll in my path (C:WindowsSystem32 is what I'm using because it's what the vendor recommends),I can wire up a call to the function and it works just fine.It returns a 1 or 0 for success/failure, but it also sets the value of the OutputData string parameter (using some C pointer magic I'm not familiar with) to a huge fixed width format return record that has the data I need.When I call it from a .NET .exe application, it works just fine.When I try to call it from an ASP.NET application via a referenced compiled .NET wrapper DLL, it runs but can't set that string.In order to get it to run, I can't have taxcommono.dll in my path, but rather have to place it in my Bin directory of the web project.Does anyone know of a reason it can set the pointer when called from an .exe application but not when called from a web app?The .NET wrapper DLL I'm using works when called from our ERP software, which is not web based. But when I add a reference to that same DLL in the web app, it won't give me that output value.am used to just getting a return value instead of a function setting the value of one of my input parameters.
