If it is an automatic transmission then you would have to remove the transmission fuid pan and it is the first thing you will see in there. I would also recommend that you drain the fuid first... but I would also recommend that you take it to a trained professional to do. You need to keep the inner workings of your transmission clean.
The 1997 Dodge Dakota is a heavy duty little truck, but requires a bit of tender loving care if it's been driven all this time. Thus, it will take about four and a half quarts of high milage oil to fill the crankcase to its proper level.
