very easily ?

I tried it with my own code a year or two ago, and had some problems 
(sorry don't remember all steps, but I think there was a tool called 
disassemble ?). As I don't use a repository at the moment, I would need
it sometimes to disassemble older versions of my exe'd code. Could you 
please give some hints, how I can get on ?

Thanks in advance
Jürgen
