I am using _argc and _argv to retrieve command line parameters.  These don't
seem to work in a dll - maybe this makes sense but I'm not really familiar
with dll's.

Isn't argc and argv ALWAYS guaranteed to at least contain the name of the
program itself???????

Can someone tell me, 1) does this make sense?  Is there another way to get
command line parms in a dll? and 2) what I really need from the command line
parms is the name of the program itself.

Thanks a lot!!!
