Thanks for the input Bob, was really just looking for some starting points - which you have given me. Basically, most of the native API's aren't documented on MSDN - the only partial references are in the DDK - but mostly these related to kernal mode functions. I had to hunt for days to find the information that i needed. There are a few reference books out there: Windows 2000 - Undocumented Secrets Windows 2000 / NT Native API reference Windows NT Undocumented APIs (www.ntinternals.net) www.sysinternals.com - if there is anythings specific that you would like to know, please feel free to e-mail me and i'll show you what i have...
