    Hi, I am having one application (developed by someone else). This application involves so many exes. How can I know the order in which these exe's are called by the application when it runs?? Do I need to build the debug version of the application as well as the exe to debug this application and place them respective folder?? I have to fix a bug in the application. How to do that in this scenario?? Regards, Satya :)

      well simplly you can move all the supporting exes to another folder, and then run the main application, Then it will start complaining about the exes missing and you then come to know the order of the supporting exes called.

          Hi, I don't know what are the exes called by the application. That's the problem.

              U mean to say that U don't have the code of the application. Then U are trying to do reverse Engineering. If yes? you are going to loose Ur hairs soon.
