Your question is a bit vague. Please clearify. What EXACTLY do you want?

Hello,
You can use the IMPDEF.EXE command line-utility to list the "_exported"
funtions of a DLL file. It only gives you the funtion names; not the
functions' argument list. Don't know if this is what you're asking or not.
Syntax:
IMPDEF.EXE def-filename.def dll-filename.dll
function list will be output to <def-filename.def>

You can't. The only way is to ask the guy who created the dll for a .h
file containing the functions declaration.

You cannot. That information is not stored anywhere. The only thing that
is available is the function name, and even then only for those functios
that are publically exported by name.

Or decompile and analyze the DLL's assembly code manually.
