The help has an index entry of Module Definition Files

Module definjition files, often called def files, are not commonly written
any more to work with a DLL. Instead people use the implib.exe tool. That
tool creates an import library, a library format file containing the
information on the DLL's name and the names of all the items it exports. By
adding the library name to the build the information is then linked into the
exe.

If you really need a def file for a DLL then use the impdef.exe tool to
create one. You can then use what it created as the starting point to add
whatever you need.
