Thanks for informations,

I spend huge amount of time only to gain knowledge
that M$ does not give the full information in MSDN!
Now I understand the problem and can find solution
by analysis of the PE format of kernel32.dll or other way.
However I wonder how it is made by internals of
Delphi compiler/linker, because I have Delphi program
(rawwrite - written by John Newbigin ) that declares
------------------------
function  LoadLibrary16;         external kernel32 index 35;
procedure FreeLibrary16;         external kernel32 index 36;
function  GetProcAddress16;      external kernel32 index 37;
-----------------------
and that imports are done "automagicaly"!
I was trying to import those functions in BC++ Builder -
you know with what results.......
At this moment I have an idea to make a dll in Delphi
(using "automagic" importing mechanism) and to use this
dll from C++ program - I expect it will be easier than to
analyse the PE of kernel32 (I know, it is not to complex,
but .....)

Many thanks
