The Dependency Walker, among other tools, is included with the Platform SDK under the Tools\Platform SDK Tools in the installer. After installing the needed portions of the SDK, you can find Depends.exe on the Start menu underMicrosoft Platform SDK\Tools\Depends. (The utility works on Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft Windows Millennium, Microsoft Windows NT, and Microsoft Windows 2000.) The documentation for the utility is in Depends.hlp, which can be found in \Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Bin.
