Soon to be co-owner of a new zone and learning how to make and edit files. Having some difficulty trying to open and figure out what .dll files do.
Is there a download to convert .dll files? Or is there another way?

A DLL is similar to an EXE. It contains binary code that the machine executes. There is no way to "view the code" unless you can understand assembly. To make a DLL you would have to use a compiler and linker (eg Visual Studio) and know how to program.

Pft, don't post while I'm making a post!

Yeah, trying to edit a DLL (dynamic link library) is a waste of time without knowing what you're doing, get the source to the dll and edit that instead.
