How to work with a .LIB in C++ (IDE:Visual Studio 6)

Hi all, I'm again here to ask help or informations!
I have to create a wrapper for a .lib using Visual Studio 6.
I have to do this cause the source of the lib use templates and Visual Studio 6 isn't able to manage them, and I can't use another IDE.

Here the questions:
1) I have the library created in Visual studio 2005, I haven't documentation about it, so what can I do?
2) How can I create a wrapper in C++ for it using Visual Studio 6? (the most important passes)
3) If I'll find the source, I have to read/study it to be able to create the wrapper?
4) In my C++ wrapper, I have to create methods that have the same names of the methods library?
i.e.:
in the library I have: GetImages(int x, int y);
if i want to use this method in my C++ wrapper, have to call: .....->GetImages(x,y);

but HOW can I use the library??

For example I open the project properties and in the "Linking" tab (or where??) I have to add: mylib.lib!
We assume that in this .lib I have a method called: isFlat();

What do I have to write in my .cpp file to use that method??

You have to #include the appropriate header file(s) for the library. If you don't have the header files, the library is useless.

And as far as I know, VC++ 6.0 can handle templates, but the support is out of date and possibly buggy.

you're going to have to post some code examples. templates are generally just included as source, you can't really "wrap" them in a lib (unless you instantiate every template you'll need and wrap that, which kinda defeats the purpose of having a template in the first place)

I asked a wrong question, sorry!!
I have the source of .lib (now) but Visual Studio 6 can't manage it, because it has some problems to work with some templates.
I have to create a wrapper for that .lib, so both will be included in another project and can be used by the users.
Is it possible? How?

Some hints??
