Determine if file is a Windows or DOS executable

Determine if file is a Windows or DOS executable

To determine if an executable has been written for Windows or DOS you
need to check byte offset 24 in the file. If it contains 40h, it's a Windows executable.

Option Explicit

'Purpose     :  Determine if an executable has been written for Windows or DOS.
'Inputs      :  sFilePath                   The path and name of the executable.
'Outputs     :  Returns 1 if the file is a windows executable.
'               Returns 0 if the file is a DOS executable.
'               Returns -1 if the file doesn't exist.

Function FileWindows(ByVal sFilePath As String) As Long
    Dim lhwndFile As Integer
    Dim sTest As String * 1     'Buffer
    
    If Len(sFilePath) > 0 And Len(Dir$(sFilePath)) > 0 Then
        lhwndFile = FreeFile
        Open sFilePath For Binary As #lhwndFile
        Get lhwndFile, 25, sTest
        Close #lhwndFile
        FileWindows = Abs(Asc(sTest) = &H40&)
    Else
        'File doesn't exist
        FileWindows = -1
    End If

End Function

'Demonstration routine
Sub Test()
    Select Case FileWindows("C:\FootballAid.exe")
    Case 1
        MsgBox "Windows file"
    Case 0
        MsgBox "DOS file"
    Case -1
        MsgBox "file doesn't exist"
    End Select
End Sub

C++ Find Chromatic Index of Cyclic Graph - Algorithm finds the "Chromatic Index" of the given cyclic graph. It takes the input of vertex pairs for the given number of edges. Assigns a 'color to edges' without assigning the same

C++ Program to Find Factorial of Number - First think what is the factorial of a number? How 'mathematically' it can be calculated. If you got this info then it will be very easier to make a C++ code logic to find the "Factorial".

C Programming Uses For Loop Statements - For Loop in C. First initialization happens and the counter variable gets initialized. Second step the condition is checked, where counter variable is tested for the given condition, if...
