How to get the path of the dll instead of the path of exe in VB 6.0?

Can someone give me the code to get the path of the dll?

Thanks

I think that DLLs are installed in

Code:

---

\system32\

---

directory, but your topic needs more details. Its not very clear what do you want.

Use this to dll

Code:

---

Private Const CSIDL_SYSTEM              As Long = &H25  'system folderPrivate Const

CSIDL_FLAG_MASK = &HFF00                    'mask for all possible flag values
Private Const SHGFP_TYPE_CURRENT = &H0                    'current value for user, verify it exists
Private Const SHGFP_TYPE_DEFAULT = &H1
Private Const S_OK = 0
Private Const S_FALSE = 1
Private Const E_INVALIDARG = &H80070057                  ' Invalid CSIDL Value

Private Declare Function SHGetFolderPath Lib "shfolder" _
        Alias "SHGetFolderPathA" (ByVal hWndOwner As Long, _
        ByVal nFolder As Long, ByVal hToken As Long, _
        ByVal dwflags As Long, ByVal pszPath As String) As Long


 Public Function System32Path() As String
Dim strBuffer  As String
Dim strPath    As String
Dim lngReturn  As Long
Dim lngCSIDL  As Long

lngCSIDL = CSIDL_SYSTEM
 
 strPath = String(MAX_PATH, 0)
 
 ' Get the folder's path. If the
        ' "Create" flag is used, the folder will be created
        ' if it does not exist.
        '
        lngReturn = SHGetFolderPath(0, lngCSIDL, 0, SHGFP_TYPE_CURRENT, strPath)
        'lngReturn = SHGetFolderPath(0, lngCSIDL Or CSIDL_FLAG_CREATE, 0, SHGFP_TYPE_CURRENT, strPath)

System32Path = Left$(strPath, InStr(1, strPath, Chr(0)) - 1)

 End Function

Then use this:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim DllName As String
DllName = Dir(System32Path & "\A3dx.dll")
 If Len(DllName) > 0 Then
  MsgBox "dll found"
 Else
  MsgBox "Dll not found"
 End If
 
End Sub

Ya'll must be psychic. :D

What DLL are you talking about? :confused:
