start Vb and select "ActiveX DLL" as project type.
Then, read the manual about creating com components.
The finished DLL can be used be other programs written in C++, VB ...

If it's an ActiveX DLL you want to make, then you can read a post I wrote here http://codeguru.developer.com/bbs/wt/showpost.pl?Board=vb&Number=12866&Searchpage=0&Limit=25 that shows the basics.

If you want to create a standard windows DLL (ie. so you have to declare all the calls to it) - you'll need a different programming language as VB doesn't support the creation of this DLL type.
