Hi Giorgio,

the linker tells you the function is unresolved meaning he can't find
the implementation. The implementation is in the DLL you mentioned,
but the linker doesn't know about the DLL (it's name etc).
What is needed besides the header file is an "import library" (.lib)
for this DLL. C++Builder already has most of the lib files in his lib
directory. If one is missing you can use the implib.exe console tool.
For example:

implib iphlpapi.lib c:\windows\system\iphlpapi.dll

(if the dll is in this path)

Once you have the import library, copy it to your project folder. You
unfortunately then have to add the library to your project by hand.
"Project->Add to Project".

Now it should work.
