Hi all,

Can someone point me in the direction of a how-to for reading the Import
Address Table for an .exe or .dll file? I'm trying to programmatically
determine DLL dependencies (like Depends.exe, but in my own application).
Also, is there a way to determine LoadLibrary dependencies programmatically
without loading and running the application? A pointer to an article or
other resource would be much appreciated.

Thanks
