Passing pointer to a pointer or pointer to a char to a dll

Yes. For example:
NABError NAB_Open(NABConnectionID *id, UINT_16 *majorVerNumer, UINT_16
*minorVerNumber, const char *requestedProfileName, char *actualProfileName);
and
NABError NAB_GetAddressBookList(NABConnectionID id, UINT_32 *abookCount,
NABAddrBookDescType **aBooks[]);
Where NABError,NABConnectionID are integers and NABAddrBookDescType is a
structure (user defined type) as follows:
typedef struct NABAddrBookDescType
{
UINT_16 attributes;
char *description;
char *fileName;

Now how would I translate this stuff to VB?
