Where to find and learn about API's

[ICCIIT]

I keep reading about the use of API's and DLL's etc within Access code, where can I find out how all this works and start to put it to use, Access help appears to be silent on this and I guess its a combination of O/S and application help that is required.

A list of common API's and their uses would be a good start if anyone could post them.

Thanks

is a great place to start with win32 apis.
It's aimed at VB6 developers, but many of the examples will work in VBA too.

We could be confused in exactly the same way, but confusion might be like Nulls, and not comparable.
