Hello, I need convert the following code:

Code:

invoke      FindFirstFile,file_extension, FIND_STRUCT

I need call the API using code like this:

Code:

;Push parameters for the function
    push file_extension     ;Put in the stack the address of FIND_STRUCT
    push FIND_STRUCT  ;File extension
    call FindFirstFile   ; find the first *.fly

I just need call the WinAPI using the call function, instead invoke Macro. Thanks for your answers

Parameters are pushed in reverse order. And the call target is indirect.

Code:

push FIND_STRUCT
push file_extension
call [FindFirstFile]

jhonny6721 has admitted he is "researching" computer viruses.

Perhaps it can now be inferred that his research might be "delivered" via .fly email files.

Must be a fishing program? Or perhaps an insect database? An airline booking system? Trouser zipper failure analysis?

Invoke GetProcAddress() to obtain the address of FindFirstFile(). Then call it.
Other than that, you'd probably need to construct the .EXE manually or analyze it in memory (i.e. find the import table and the address of FindFirstFile() in it).

I wonder if you are confusing the use of invoke (the Q the OP asked) with the existence of a binding in the import table?
