Not safe. Don't waste your time trying it, MS don't support or guarantee the stability of the ordinals.

Thank you, revolution. So, ordinals are for applications "inner" use only? Does any application have DLLs with fixed ordinals?

If you mean ordinal numbers, which I assume you do, there are some hidden Windows APIs which you can only call by using ordinal numbers, you also have to try to figure out what each API does and what parameters it takes. MS does not like you using these, they're meant to be better/faster than the standard APIs so that Windows performs better/faster than your application.

I was gonna ask for some citation from anyone.
Code: http://www.thevbzone.com/secrets.htm#Hidden VB API declarations for a few hidden ones. Code: http://www.inlumineconsulting.com:8080/website/nt.sekrits.html More to do with NT APIs than anything else. |

Most DLLs have the ordinal numbers change every version, but there are actually a few where the ordinal numbers are stable. wsock32.dll is one example.
