DLLs and Call Library Function/Library Name or Path

We are using functions from a DLL to implement Call Library Function Nodes. In the Call Library Function dialog, Library name or path box, we have been putting the complete path to the DLL. If instead we just put the name of the DLL, will the program follow the normal Windows convention to search for the DLL, that is, first in the current directory, then in the %System Root%, then...?

I glanced through the documentation and couldn't find the information
there, but yes. Providing only the name of the library should use the
normal system path for locating the library.
