Hi, A DLL is a Dynamic Link Library In a nut shell, a dynamic link library (DLL) is a collection of small programs, which can be called upon when needed by the executable program (EXE) that is running. The DLL lets the executable communicate with a specific device such as a printer or may contain source code to do particular functions.
An example is, if a program (exe) needs to find the free space in your hard drive, It calls the DLL file that contains the function with parameters and a call function. The DLL will then tell the executable the free space. And for Opening a DLL file, u better read it at this link. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_open_.dll_files_to_see_what_is_w ritten_inside Hope everything got clear.
