Also Robert has a program called dsearch.exw that will search several common
DLL's for a specific function like CopyFile or any others but you have to
know what the name of the function is and which *.DLL's to search in.  If
you are using the win32.hlp look up a function you want to use and then
click on the Quickinfo link it will list the import library which for the
CopyFile function it's kernel32.lib.  Then all you have to do when you do
the search is substitute the *.lib for *.dll and usually you will find it in
the corresponding *.dll file.  Short ver is kernel32.lib has pretty much the
same functions as kernel32.dll.  I hope this will help.  So far it's been
right on the money.  Try it.
