The CE 5 build used a ROM-based DLL and some flags set in platform builder. A normal DLL wouldn't work: it ignored the load address and setting /FIXED stopped it loading altogether. I believe CE 6 (wasn't directly involved with that myself though) is friendlier and doesn't need platform builder tweaks or a ROM based DLL. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
