If you want to find out what processes currently hold a certain DLL, you may
look at sysinternals ListDLL tool [1]. If you want to find out if a DLL or
EXE file depends on a certain DLL, you can use depends.exe.

Actually i needed to know if a exe has called my dll, which exe that is.
and was able to find out using the GetModulefilename.

So Porblem solved :)
