When trying to load a DLL on Win 10 using Win32::api::Loadlibrary

the routine returns a 0

I have seen this same return on Win 7

On Vista this worked.

Could someone verify this and/or offer a work around?

Win32::API version 0.84
Perl version 5.14.3

Routine call

   $l_cedsni_handle = Win32::API->new($l_tmp, '_cedsniDump@8', 'PP', 'N');

    if (not defined $l_cedsni_handle)
    {
die "DSN Interface failed \n";
exit (0);
 }

Inside this call you can see that the actual call to loadlibrary returns 0


TY
