Re: where oh where have my DLLs gone ???

I think DLL-information is stored in the exe-file's header among with whole
lots of stuff like Program's version, copyrights etc. I'm not sure though,
does wotsit.org have exe-file specifications?

Question : Is anyone able to tell me how i can find out what programs are
dependent on what files.
ie How does dependency walker (its a extra NT admin tool) work and get its
information. (for people who dont know.... dependency walker takes in a file
and then tells you what files that file needs to run, dlls etc etc)
I  am guessing it is a registry trick or something.

If anyone can point me in the right direction i would be appreciate it. I am
planning on coding something similar to dependency walker in C++.

Cheers
JC
