    ' The minor version number of this file.
    MinorImageVersion As Integer
    ' The major version of the operating subsystem needed for this executable.
    ' At one time, it was used to indicate that the newer Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 user interface was

    ' Another field that never took off.  Typically set to 0.

    SizeOfImage As Long
    ' The combined size of the MS-DOS header, PE headers, and section table.  All of these items will
    ' occur before any code or data sections in the PE file.  The value of this field is rounded up to

    SizeOfHeaders As Long
    ' The checksum of the image.  The CheckSumMappedFile API in IMAGEHLP.DLL can calculate this value.

    ' can be 0.  The checksum is placed in the file when the /RELEASE linker switch is used.
    CheckSum As Long
    ' An enum value indicating what subsystem (user interface type) the executable expects.

    Subsystem As Integer
    ' Flags indicating characteristics of this DLL represented by IMAGE_DLLCHARACTERISTICS_xxx #defines.
    ' Some values are: IMAGE_DLLCHARACTERISTICS_NO_BIND (Do not bind this image)
    ' IMAGE_DLLCHARACTERISTICS_WDM_DRIVER (Driver uses WDM model)
    ' IMAGE_DLLCHARACTERISTICS_TERMINAL_SERVER_AWARE (When the terminal server loads an application

    DllCharacteristics As Integer
    ' In EXE files, max size the initial thread in the process can grow to (1MB by default).
    ' Not all memory is committed initially.
    SizeOfStackReserve As Long
    ' In EXE files, the amount of memory initially committed to the stack.  Default is 4KB.
    SizeOfStackCommit As Long
    ' In EXE files, the initial reserved size of the default process heap.  Default is 1MB.

    ' This field contains the number of array entries. (has been 16 since earliest releases of NT)
    NumberOfRvaAndSizes As Long

    SizeOfInitializedData As Long
    ' The size of all sections with the uninitialized data attributes.  This field will often be 0,

    SizeOfUninitializedData As Long
    ' A pointer to the entry point function, relative to the image base address (The relative virtual
    ' address (RVA) of the first code byte in the file that will be executed.)  For DLLs, this
    ' entrypoint is called during process initialization and shutdown and during thread creations/
    ' destructions.  In most executables, this address doesn't directly point to main, WinMain,
    ' or DllMain, rather, it points to runtime library code that calls the aforementioned functions.
    ' This field can be set to 0 in DLLs, and none of the previous notifications will be received.

    AddressOfEntryPoint As Long

    '---- NT additional fields. ----
    ' The preferred load address of this file in memory.  The loader attempts to load the PE file at

    ImageBase As Int64
    ' The alignment of sections when loaded into memory.  The alignment must be greater or equal to the

    SectionAlignment As Long
