Try moving the .dll file to your windows/system32 directory.

Please make use of the KB 17261 , I am pasting it for your review

Error 3258 -- Why Am I Getting It??
There are several possible reasons for getting error 3258 when calling
a procedure located in a DLL. Those reasons are as follows:
1) You are using a 16-bit version of Progress (i.e. V7, V8.0, V8.1)
and are attempting to call a 32-bit DLL.
2) You are using a 32-bit version of Progress (i.e. V8.2) and are
attempting to call a 16-bit DLL.
3) You have coded an explicit path and file name for the DLL in the
procedure definition and that path and/or file name does not
exist.
4) The DLL does not exist in the normal search path used by Windows
to find a DLL (i.e. current directory, windows system directory,
and finally the directories listed in the PATH environment
variable.
5) The DLL itself uses other DLL's and those DLL's could not be
found.
