[users@httpd] Calling custom DLL from Apache on Windows

Hello everyone, 

  I need to call custom DLL library from Apache (replacing MS IIS, where
it works). I have a directory  on the webserver, where I have test.exe
(just displaying environment values in HTML table) and dll library that
must be called through Apache (using 
something like 'POST /application/custom.dll')

I've managed to call test.exe from the web browser (using Options ExecCGI
and ScriptAlias directives in httpd.conf), but I'm unable to find out how
to call the .dll library. I always get HTTP response 500 and "%1 is not a
valid Win32 application" in err
orlog.

  Does anyone have a clue how to make this working? It may be easy, but
I'm UN*X oriented now and can't find a way :-(
  I would really like to switch that application from MS IIS to Apache and
this is the last piece that blocks me.

  Thank you in advance

     Jirka Vejrazka
