Hi and thanks for reading.

I've developed an application that uses the LoadLibrary function to access a DLL dynamically. The app works fine except on a Windows '98 machine (I haven't tested it on Win '95 or ME, but I think it would probably crash there too). Does anyone know how I can get around this problem? Of course, a code example would be great! :-D
 
I don't know, what DLL you're trying to load and what function you're trying to find?
 
apatterno, I'm trying to load msxml4.dll. For more info. on the problem, check out
Specifically,"Windows Me/98/95: If you are using LoadLibrary to load a module that contains a resource whose numeric identifier is greater than 0x7FFF, LoadLibrary fails. If you are attempting to load a 16-bit DLL directly from 32-bit code, LoadLibrary fails. If you are attempting to load a DLL whose subsystem version is greater than 4.0, LoadLibrary fails. If your DllMain function tries to call the Unicode version of a function, LoadLibrary fails."

Any ideas? Thanks!
