Win-API call under Win98 and WinNT/2000

Compiled LabVIEW programs (e.g. under Win98) which include Win-API calls (directly called by using the "External Libraries Call" tool) cannot find the corresponding DLLs if run under WinNT/2000 since default Windows folders have different names.
Can path variables be included in the configuration of the LV-DLL call and if yes, how? This might resolve the problem.

If it is the system DLL that you are calling, then do not specify the absolute path to the dll when you configure call library node e.g. C:\Windows\System\user32.dll. Instead just type the name of the dll e.g. "user32.dll". This way LabVIEW will perform system search for the dll.
