The toolhelp apis exist on both Win98, 2k and XP. They are part of
kernel32.dll but are developed using a separate import lib (libth32.lib
under VS6). I didn't think that libth32.a existed in the w32api package
before I sent the email. Now the only question is if it is still the
same for Visual Studio.Net or did the move the th32 import information
to kernel32? If M$ did change it then we should also.

Thanks
Steven
