Hi,
I'm using Dan Appleman's Visual Basic programmer's guide to the win32 api.
I always thought this was a very thorough and complete book. In this forum however, I keep on coming across API-call's which aren't mentioned in this book at all. Is there a real complete book on the window's API and how to call the functions from VB, one that cover's it all ?
Which ones are not?
(ok, which of the ones vb can use are not;-?
Eg. calls to functions in WININET.dll aren't covered.
Ah. Yes.
Do you have Wininet.bas?
I can post if you don't.
No, I don't have it.
I'd appreciate it very much if you would post it.
Thanks in advance.
ear tis.
