Coordinates API within Wintab32.dll 1

[perplexd]

Hi people,

I need to get the coordinates of the pen-position on a tablet. Hence I need to access the API within Wintab.dll which can give me this information.

Does anyone know
- the name of this API
- whether it requires any parameters to be passed
- what data-type it returns

Also obviously I need to get each coordinate as the pen changes position. Does the API automatically update to the most recent coordinates (or how do I do this) and if so how often does this happen...so I can ensure that I get all the points.....or is there an event which fires when the coordinates change?

Any help much appreciated.
