  • Newbie programming question

    Hi, just a quickie...

    Say if I need to invoke a function from a DLL.
    But I do not yet know the name of the function.

    Is there any way I can get a list of function names and arguments within a DLL?

    Thanks.

    IIRC "quickview" in the Win95 era can do this, right?

    yup

    it can

    It's one of those things I missed in W2k that I had in W98

        msdn.microsoft.com maybe?

        I know it's not the easiest way, but if it's an MS dll then it should be listed in their reference libraries.

          You could download QuickView+, or there are a dozen DLL explorers and dependency tracers out there.

              What dll?
              Some dll's can be directly "imported" into ms development environments.
