how useful is dede?

[hz]

hi,
anobody had more than a little success with dede?. I've never got much from it and now I'm looking at references to TfmEnterRegCode that does'nt appear to
exist. Any help advice appreciated.

I find it a wonderful RE work, and very useful too, especially if you are oriented towards a dead-listing approach. In that case you can find immediately the entry points of the routines you are interested at, and you can go on reversing and understanding your target, eventually dumping them with a good disassembler like IDA (but DeDe itself is a very good disassembler...).
Obviusly you cannot pretend to find the symbol TfmEnterRegCode in SoftIce: it's related to a form structure, but the code entry point is well shown by DeDe, so if you want you can break at the address DeDe will suggest you.

All these words are just on a theretical ground, because I do not know what is the application you are referring to.

Best regards

hi,
yes what I should have said is a registration box/form whatever that I can
find no way to activate. Maybe you would
be willing to help?
