function calls

Is there a mechanism in XP to allow a series of operations to be listed in a
..exe file so that they can be launched with a single operation?

I'm not sure what you mean by "a series of operations". Are they
seperate applications? Do they require user input while they run? Do
they automaticly close when they finish their task?

It sounds like you need a Command Prompt batch file or a VB Script.

Go to Google.com and search for "batch files" and "vb script" to find
tutorials.

A DLL (dynamic linked library) file is a group of functions that are called
by their entry point names. You can then call the function using an
application or perhaps even use rundll32.exe and specify the function name
within the .dll file. Your post is way to vague to know what you want to
do - but I am also not a programmer. Asking in a programming newsgroup
would make much more sense than posting in a *basics* newsgroup!
