Actually I don't think he did break his rule, Olaf, or at least he did not 
break his own interpretation of that rule. As far as I can gather from his 
various posts the OP has embedded the DLL file into his compiled exe (as a 
resource I imagine) and at runtime his code is extracting the DLL and saving 
it to a specific folder which is available for writing on the machine on 
which his exe is running and he is then using LoadLibrary so his code can 
use it from the location to which his exe saved it. This enabled him to 
still send just a single exe file to his customers. At least that's what I 
think he is doing . . . and I'm sure you'll have a few things to say to him 
about that ;-)
