My first comment to Jason about rebasing was that we should implement it via libbfd. I think the whole ME thing demonstrates that quite nicely. :]. Anyway, just for kicks, I've done a little imagehlp.dll ME research - it will likely overlap with what you've already done, but hey :}. Some ms technotes. Q235662 Q190352 - interesting - suggests replacing imagehlp.dll in win98. Q229819 - the windows installer installer replaces imagehlp.dll as well. Q252829 - as does internet explorer Q169275 - about using imagehlp.dll from NT 4.0 on 3.51: relevant section instructs to copy imagehlp.dll to the application folder, not the system32 folder, so your app finds the correct one. You might consider looking at the MS DLL Help Tool (available via msdn.microsoft.com, do an advanced search for imagehlp.dll) and see if there are any notes on the version you have installed. Also try installing the windows installer 2.0 and see if it's updated imagehlp.dll helps. Lastly, try using sysinternals debugview and related tools to see if any low level errors occur from within imagehlp.dll. IFF all that gives nothing, then I'd WAG that MS have removed rebasing from the dll, leaving behind stubs. Rob
