    I'll look again, but maybe someone else knows some direct link.

    They all describe the NE (new executable) format that Win 3.1 used. I want the description of the PE (portable executable) format that was introduced with Win NT and is used by all 32-bit versions of windows.

    Hereya go... Included is a decent description of the PE file format, and some misc. asm code that gets them out. The file PE.txt is probably what you are looking for

    No probs at all. Maybe you could help me somewhat...

    Im looking for a way to get out the PE info in VB. I need an efficient way to do it (ie without using Seek # or whatever).

    I can do it in C and/or ASM, but I need a way to do it in VB, any ideas?
