...Uso de Dynamic-Link Library (DLL)...me gustaría si alguien tiene algún tutorial de como utilizarlas correctamente y sacarles el maximo beneficio...

Revisa esta código:

Código Delphi [-]
library MathDLL;

uses
  Windows,
  Messages,
  SysUtils,
  Variants,
  Classes,
  Graphics,
  Controls,
  Forms,
  Dialogs,
  StrUtils;

{$R *.res}

// Suma dos números reales
function SumNum(N1, N2 : Double) : Double; stdcall;
begin
   Result := N1 + N2;
end;

// Resta dos números reales
function SubNum(N1, N2 : Double) : Double; stdcall;
begin
   Result := N1 - N2;
end;

// Multiplica dos números reales
function MulNum(N1, N2 : Double) : Double; stdcall;
begin
   Result := N1 * N2;
end;

// Divide dos números reales
function DivNum(N1, N2 : Double) : Double; stdcall;
begin
   Result := N1 / N2;
end;

exports
   SumNum,
   SubNum,
   MulNum,

El código anterior en Delphi 7 sobre Windows 7 Professional x32, Crea una DLL con funciones matemáticas básicas e implementa la misma en formas estática y dinámica, como se puede ver en la siguiente imagen:



El ejemplo esta disponible en el siguiente link : Example DLL Static vs Dinamic.rar

Revisa esta información:

1- Creating and Using DLLs from Delphi

2- Static vs. Dynamic Dynamic Link Library Loading - A Comparison

3- Controling DLL loading

4- Dynamic-Link Library Functions

Espero sea útil
