Who can tell me what functions this dll supports ?

I need a function which tells me the total physical memory.
And I need a hint how can I use this functions and how i bind it in my code.

Please fast, is it urgent !!!!!

Or where I can find a complete list of the dll functions.

Thanks
 
www.allapi.net contains the most commonly used API declarations and a description for them.
For memory you could try using the GlobalMemoryStatusEx API.
Remeber: That site contains declarations for VB6 so you have to change all declarations As Long to As Integer because VB6s Long is equal to .NETs Integer.
 
Code: 
Private objCS As ManagementObjectSearcher
Private objMgmt As ManagementObject
Public m_strTPM As String

Public Sub memory()
        objCS = New ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystem")
        For Each objMgmt In objCS.Get
            m_strTPM = objMgmt("totalphysicalmemory").ToString() 
        Next
End Sub

I hope this help.
Bye
 
You need to go to the Project menu -> References, and add a
reference to the System.Management DLL in your project.

Now my last question:

Wer i can find a listing of all these infos

SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystem

Why do you know that the TotalMemory is written in WIN32_ComputerSystem and there in "totalphysicalmemory" ???

is there a list or something ?
