If there is a specific function you are looking for, do a keyword search on this forum.

If you want general information, refer to the MSDN or the Windows API section at universalthread.com. Jon Hawkins

For some VFP specific API calls, go to the UT,

http://www.universalthread.com/Forum5.asp

and click on "Windows API functions"

I would also recommend Dan Appleman's VB Win32 API reference. It is VB but it has great explanations of how the various API calls work.

If you are good at VB to VFP code conversion, go to

http://www.allapi.net/

and get the free API Guide. More sample code and a way to search for what you think you want.

And if you've got Visual Studio, there's a handy API Text viewer in the Visual Studio 6.0 Tools folder. Again, it's written for VB, but it's not too hard to figure out. --Dave

Hello.

My answer comes late, I know, but because I didn't want to post anything that can be considered as 'copyrited' (I had problems with this), I spend some time to remember where I've got the Struct Class.

This is a whole thing about the API calls, written by Christof Lange. You can download yourself from ftp://ftp.prolib.de/public/vfp/struct.zip.


Very good article and a lot of samples.


Hope this helps.
