Default outlook express About dialog

Hi,
The Help-About dialog box of outlook express shows a list of some dll files
and there locations. Its been this way for I think a long time. Why is this
so? Why doesnt other applications of windows os show dll file names.

There is nothing wrong with showing them there but I have had this question
in my mind for years and only now I thought I post this here

Thanks,

Ab.

I think they did it to verify the file versions of the program.

But why only Outlook Express? Why not Word, or Excel, or IE, or Calc,
Notepad, etc etc.

Each application area has its own development staff. So its up to them
to have this feature or not.

I suspect it's in OE as a debugging tool. OE is dependent on numerous
DL files that aren't under the control of OE. They can be changed as
other programs are installed or updated.

With programs in Office, that's less of an issue.
