The GetModuleHandle function returns a module handle for the specified module if the file has been mapped into the address space of the calling process.
HMODULE GetModuleHandle(
LPCTSTR lpModuleName // address of module name to return handle for
);
Parameters
lpModuleName
Points to a null-terminated string that names a Win32 module (either a .DLL or .EXE file). If the filename extension is omitted, the default library extension .DLL is appended. The filename string can include a trailing point character (.) to indicate that the module name has no extension. The string does not have to specify a path. The name is compared (case independently) to the names of modules currently mapped into the address space of the calling process.
If this parameter is NULL, GetModuleHandle returns a handle of the file used to create the calling process.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is a handle to the specified module.
