How can I get screen coordinates

I'm trying to place a form where the mouse is clicked. I'm always getting the client coordinates and not the screen coordinates. How can I get'em. Pls help

GetCursorPos api

just an example from api-guide:

VB Code:

'This project needs
'a Form, called 'Form1'
'a Picture Box, called 'ExplButton' (50x50 pixels)
'a Picture Box with an icon in it, called 'picIcon'
'two timers (Timer1 and Timer2), both with interval 100
'Button, called 'Command1'
'In general section
Private Type RECT
    Left As Long
    Top As Long
    Right As Long
    Bottom As Long
End Type
Private Type POINTAPI
    X As Long
    Y As Long
End Type

        'If Pushed=True then clr1=Dark Gray

    End If
 
    With Form1.ExplButton
        ' Draw the button

    End With
End Sub
Private Sub Command1_Click()

OOPs!!! Too much...Any ways thank you
this worked out for me
Private Type POINTAPI
x As Long
y As Long
End Type
Private Declare Function GetCursorPos Lib "user32" (lpPoint As POINTAPI) As Long
