I've asked about this on perlmonks, too (where it's really quite OT): http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=960506 In response to that post BrowserUk also raised the possibility of using manifests ... which only served to send me scurrying for the nearest sandpile into which I could bury my head ;-) Having posted there, it then occurred to me that I could frame the question in such a way that it wasn't OT here ... which is what I then proceeded to do. (I don't usually go posting willy-nilly all over the place.) If it *can* be done using manifests, then I think that's *the* solution to use. (I do have a 64-bit version of mt.exe, if that's any use. So far, all I've really ascertained is that none of these dll files have a resource section. As regards manifest files themselves, I still haven't really got past the "Huh ?" stage.)
