DLL Files

[lambo]

Can anyone out there tell me what exactly DLL files are. Also does anyone know a good source of information on what all the files in the windows system are.

Thank you

The Webopedia (http://webopedia.internet.com/TERM/D/DLL.html) says a DLL is a Dynamic b]Link Library, a library of functions and data that can be used by a Windows application.

Hi
Library files are files that tell how to do specific routines.
DLL files are generally Library files that contain common routines that several applications perform. Therefore by having one shared Library, the compiled program is not so large because it does not have to include it. Laters...
