Help Me!

I just started learning API, and I am really stuck.


FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH = &H80000000

thats not the whole code,
but what is the &H8000etc... for?
what does that mean?

FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH is the name of a constant. &H80000000 is it's assigned value. Any number in VB starting with &H is a hexadecimal number.

how do I convert it from hex, and can I just give the value?
this isnt real I am sure, but say &H80000000 = 3
instead of
FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH = &H80000000

could I do this]

FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH = 3

Pull up your Windows' Calulator (view: Scientific).
Click the Hex radiobox and enter 80000000.
Then click the Dec. In this case, &H80000000 = 2147483648.
