DLL methods and functions

[DragonSteve]

Hi,
does anybody know how you can retrieve the methods and functions out of a DLL.
It must be possible to do. If you look at MTS and you insert a dll and expands the tree of that dll, you get a list of all methods.
So I presume that there must be some existing API calls that retrieves those methods out of the DLL.

As far as my knowledge of calling methods and functions of DLL,

First Step: Select the DLL into ur project reference.
Second Step: create an instance of the DLL into ur program.

After these u'll be able to access the methods and functions of that dll.
Suppose DataAccess.dll is being referenced in ur project. I program write
Dim objDataAccess As New DataAccess
and to access this
Set rs = objDataAccess.GetRecordset(sqlID)
where GetRecordset is a function in that DLL.

Hope this would help u out.

Tell me whether it has helped u or not.

That is not exactly wat I had in mind.

I want to extract the method information out of a DLL that is compiled. Not referencing it.

I have a list of DLL's and want to extract the DLL information and methods out of that DLL.
It is possible but I don't know how.
There is also a difference between C++ DLL's and VB DLL's.
It seems that for C++ DLL's information about there methods can be extracted. But for VB DLL's not.
But if you place your VB DLL in a package in microsoft transaction server (MTS) you can see the methods of the dll.

Any suggestions or knowledge
