    I need to use a 16-bit DLL in VB 6.0, but the program only says "File not found". Dependency Walker gives the result "No PE signature found. This file is not a valid Win32 module."

    Is there any way to use this DLL in my 32-bit application?
    Thanks.

    are you sure it's intact? nearly all 16-bit DLLs can be used from 32-bit VB (just look at the mm system in Win98...). PE just means portable executable and is m$ new format for programs. don't exactly know why, but they are easier to debug and nearly everything creates them now.
    other than that, try and replicate the functionality in a new 32-bit DLL.
