Hello,

this is the first time that I debug a program heavily using DLLs. I noticed a "strange" behavior, when after getting the list of imports and exports of a given DLL, I try to set breakpoints on all references of a given API used inside the DLL. When I do so OllyDbg return a "No refering commands" message on the status bar and no bpx has been placed on any of the references. I always have to request the references to be shown and place the bpx manually on all of them. I was wondering about the reason of this behavior. Also what does "No refering commands" mean?????

Sorry, the forum cut part of the title of this post ... the complete title was "Setting breakpoints on all references of an import in a DLL".

did you enter the dll and ask ollydbg to analyse it first?
