    And with the others... I have thought to statically link the main dll because it will always used, and the others dinamically to be choosen when needed.

    Nope, you can't statically link with dll's. In case of MFC, they gave you the choice because they provide both versions: dll or static library, so you can simply choose which one you use. In the case of third party dll's, you won't have the choice, you need to distribute them with your application (except if they provide a static library too, which I doubt).

    From the others DLLs there is only one third party DLL, the rest have to be programmed by me. And there is where I don't know how to start with :sigh::confused: Actually I would prefer to programm my functions in a new module/class and just calling the third party dll to stablish the connection when needed, but my boss wants to do it in different dlls and that is what confuse me. Once the connection is made, I should theoretically be able to read from / write to with usual functions. I know that I need to learn about DLLs and more in programming but the fucking project has a deadline and I'm afraid about it :~

    Greetings. -------- M.D.V. If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you ;)

        And if your loads a DLL at run time, you wont be able to check this with "depends". So you need to check what are the dlls your exe might use and check "depends" for all these dlls. Otherwise it would keep on failing !

          Are you using Release configuration?

            As explained before, you should use Dependency Walker to check which dll are required by your application. You should also distribute the release version of your application, not the debug one (legally, you are not allowed to do so).

              There will be two build configuration by default. Debug and Release. You can change it through Build -> Set Active Project Configuration...

                MFC42D.DLL is the debug version of the MFC library and is only installed with Visual Studio. If you compile your program as a release version, it will use MFC42.DLL which is present on all Windows systems. Steven
