Win32Api Functions Documentation

[jonscott8]

Where can I locate documentation on the functions in Win32Api? I was told it was supplied in the books that comes with the Windows Software Development Kit and the Windows SDK comes with Visual C++. I am using Visual Studio 2000, but have been unsuccessful finding this documentation.<br>Any suggestions or pointers would be greatly appreciated.<br><br>Thanks<br>Jon

Where you can get almost anything on microsoft tools<br>some will say MSDN, and they are right, just goto msdn.micrsoft.com and check the Library. it'll have the most current information.<br><br><A HREF="

Thanks for the suggestion Ropje. Although, I would prefer a viewer that is VFP oriented(Declares,syntax of coding examples,etc.). That one appears to be VB oriented. I am fairly familiar with C++ and will stick with the MSDN...for now.<br><br>Thanks again.<br><br>Jon

nice thing about C++ though, is the headers provide a great API Wrapper, and dont have to worry about the API Declaration, (either though MFC or through windows.h) <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

hey jonscott<br>yep UT.&nbsp;&nbsp;They added a new API section.&nbsp;&nbsp;Gives DECLARES for VB, C and VFP.&nbsp;&nbsp;It's growing so a specific one you're looking for may no be there but Erik Moore or someone else may answer a specific all you're looking for and add it next. <p>John Durbin<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>ICQ VFP ActiveList #73897253
