hi,
Is it possible to 'copy' functions from, let's say, kernel32.dll to a custom DLL?
and is it usefull?
When i have a small app that uses one function from a large DLL very often. is it better for the speed of the app. to extract the function and put it in a new DLL? so it won't need to load the large user32.dll??
If this is a stupid question, please tell me gently :D
Thanx,
Remvs
You can't do that.
Plus, most dll's (even if they are huge and you are only using one function from the one hundred thay offer) are already on the PC before you ever wrote your program.
Where you have the need to bring big files along with your program is when you are accessing COM objects (like a listbox).
Then you lug along 5MB of .OCX file for one little control.

Thats true, as i have found out. I suppose thats the downside of VB? Not much i can do about it, except not using a RichTxtBox?
