Hi Al,
Windows dll are the format ast windows .exe files the format is Portable
Executable (PE).
The windows process responsible for loading program in memory distinguish dll
from exe files from a flag in the file header. You can test it by renaming a dll
with a .exe extesion and open it in euphoria with open_dll(). It will work but
you can't run it like program because the windows loader will know it is a dll by
reader the header.
For more information about the PE format:

agree with the licence and download "pecoff v8.doc" on the next page.
