I don't know exactly which format VB expects, but you can get a list of
exports from the DLL using:
dumpbin /exports libpq.dll

If you also need the function definitions, check libpq-fe.h for C style
syntax. (It's in src/interfaces/libpq)

As a sidenote, you may be much better off using ADO with the ODBC driver -
it's definitly move VB-friendly.
