There's a large number of versions of the D3DX dll, from each SDK update, each version having a unique name (http://www.toymaker.info/Games/html/d3dx_dlls.html).

I work on a program with about 50 DLLs that are loaded from one executable, it's an old organically grown program where the only rationale for creating a new DLL is that one previously didn't exist to fill a given need.

Where can I get them?

Hi all!
I am attempting to register a basic COM dll on a Windows Server 2008 standard box.
I run regsvr32 capicom.dll and it reports DllRegisterServer in capicom.dll succeeded. This is the same process we've used for years on Windows Server 2003.
Sadly, when I attempt to create the object via a…

I have a WindowsXP configured as a build machine. The build process runs under an account which isn't an administrator.
Some projects register as a last step an ocx control with something like
regsvr32 /s /c ".\debug\myocx.ocx"
