Got Visual Studio and the Interop.PCDLRN.dll... Now what?

As I upgraded one CMM to Windows 7 64-bit, my small VBS helpers died in the process (still kickin' butt on XP though).
So, I have begun re-coding them in Visual Studio 2010 (I think). I have gotten so far in the coding where I need to connect to PC-DMIS and start interfacing with it. Now, I managed to find the DLL that is supposed to expose some interfaces and methods and I have successfully added it to my project.

Then what? How do I use the DLL to connect to PC-DMIS and expose the PartPrograms collection for instance?

Oh, I am using C# for this...

Any and all input, examples or suggestions are VERY welcome!

TIA!

And today you need the .NET libraries installed, both for C# and vb.NET. But PC-DMIS needs that (.NET) too, so you don't see the problem...

And continuing on that track - as C# needs .NET, how can it be useful in any other environment than Windows? Have I missed something? Has the Mono project actually matured enough to be generally useful?

Microsoft is in the process of open-sourcing .NET, for the sole purpose of making it truly cross platform
