Yes, you can. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682586.aspx Dynamic-Link library search order A system can contain multiple versions of the same dynamic-link library (DLL). That said .. wasn't there something recently on this list about not being able to find cygwin1.dll using the windows search? Probably either attrib or dir from a command prompt would find it - eg: C:\>attrib cygwin1.dll /s C:\Cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll C:\Cygwin\source\tcptrace\cygwin-libs\win9x\cygwin1.dll C:\Cygwin\source\tcptrace\cygwin-libs\winNT\cygwin1.dll C:\Cygwin\source\tcptrace\cygwin-libs\cygwin1.dll C:\MyProgs\John\run\cygwin1.dll C:\MyProgs\TCPtrace\cygwin1.dll C:\MyProgs\win_xplot\bin\win9x\cygwin1.dll C:\MyProgs\win_xplot\bin\winNT\cygwin1.dll C:\UTIL\cygwin1.dll C:\> Regards, Lee -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
