Prakash advised me that the problem is very likely to be related to the "ELSE" command and
"ELIST" command conflicting with eachother. Something similar happened to the VDSELM DLL which
had an "ELEMENT" command. I'll probably have to rename the ELIST command and @ELIST()
function names to something different.

Yes the problem is VDS doesn't interpret the whole word/command/literal it just takes the first few characters. For example look at this little example which works in VDS 4:

New version is up which fixes the compatibility problem with ELSE. It now uses an EXTLIST
command and @EXTLIST() function. Please note that this version of the DLL is no longer
backwards compatible.
