Windows API Calls

[bdjb]

I've done several searches, but have come up empty.. Does anyone know of a good reference for using the Windows API calls to pull information in MS Access?

Thanks

Hi,

This one that I used to use while learning:

http://mech.math.msu.su/~vfnik/WinApi/index.html

If you don't see what you are looking for there, give a good account of what you are trying to do. We'll see if we can help.

A good reference book is Visual Basic Programmer's Guide to the Windows API by Daniel Appleman, though I'm not sure there have been new editions for some time (my copy is 10 years old).

The authoritative reference is the Platform SDK portion of the MSDN library, but I think you need a library subscription to access it.

Thanks Rick,
I'll see if anyone at work has a subscription to MSDN.
