Is it safe to assume that SHLWAPI exports are at the same ordinal?
I checked this at XP, 2000 and 2003, and they had all the same ordinal.

Thanks

In general it is not safe, if it is not explicit documented...

Thanks. It seemed to be that even on Windows 2003 builds, there are
different ordinals for mentioned library. My assumption led to a crash :<
