It is very interesting indeed. As far as I know the way to check whether another header is needed it to look up the documentation on MSDN, although it does tend to be incomplete — for instance the documentation for DNS functions only mentions windns.h, even though windns.h needs windows.h (or more typically, winsock2.h). In general, if a header doesn't build on its own, adding windows.h before it fixes things. It's not satisfactory, I know, but I don't think there's anything better... Regards, Stephen
