Thanks. From your reply and others input I think it's clear that as long as I include the h file and write some kind of code to load the dll I should be able to write a stand alone program c which accesses the installaide user functions. I hope the loading of the library will be the same across different versions of windows, if not, I will just have to work around that problem somehow. Thanks for the help.
