Of course my real question is regarding to any function giving this error. I can handle some of them by checking the related dll. Do you have a general suggestion ?

Cetin,

I'm pretty sure that GetFileVersion() maps directly to GetFileVersionInfo (note the spelling, that's why the entry point isn't found). I've played around with it some (before I found the Foxtools function). The problem is in extracting the information from the structure. It's not real "clean". I can supply you with some code if you like. Personally, I think it's too much work given that we've got the Foxtools function. Let me know.
