Patching .EXE for runtime 200

[Nils Petersen]

Hi all,

we have very successfully updated a couple of our old programs with the
latest OPCRT unit and these are well. BUT we still have three binaries
where the source code has been lost years ago.

How can I find out which units are in use? Is there an easy way to patch
them? I've tried the obvious TP6/7 patch utils available on the web but
they all fail to do the job. Chances are high that OPCRT was used
(December 94).
ctbppat (from German c't magazine) tells me that these programs are TP7
and don't use CRT (surely the TP one).

Is there any way out of this rather than disassemble the whole thing and
wade through the swamp or rebuild the programs from scratch?

Any help appreciated.
