I have a small project that works fine as an EXE. Now I want to make

routine called ThreadProc. I've tryed this several different ways and
can't get it to work. It compiles fine but when I go rundll32 mydll.dll
nothing happenes (works in exe form.)
A few problems:
It's generally not a good idea to call CreateThread in your DllMain You.
do mention you're handling the problems this will raise elsewhere .
RunDll32 is likely not even loading your DLL. Your using incorrect
syntax, as RunDll32 expects an exported function that it can call.
Even if RunDll32 was loading your DLL, it's extremely likely the
RunDll32 process would exit long before your spawned thread could do
anything remotely interesting.
If you want to test your DLL, it's probably best to write a simple test
app that will call LoadLibrary, and then either wait for you to close
it, or waits some specified time.
