What kind of variable should i use

This is my code...

Code:

---

        .386
        .model flat, stdcall
        option casemap:none

include        \masm32\include\windows.inc
include        \masm32\include\kernel32.inc
include        \masm32\include\user32.inc
includelib        \masm32\lib\kernel32.lib
includelib        \masm32\lib\user32.lib

MainDialogProc        proto :HWND, :UINT, :WPARAM, :LPARAM

        .data
Msg1Cap                db        "MainDialogX =", 0
Msg2Cap                db        "MainDialogY =", 0
Position        db        "Position", 0
iniString        db        "Fonts.ini", 0
X                db        "X", 0
Y                db        "Y", 0

        .data?
MainDialogX        dd        ?
MainDialogY        dd        ?

        .const

        .code
start:
        invoke        GetPrivateProfileInt, addr Position, addr X, 200, addr iniString
        mov        MainDialogX, eax

        invoke        GetPrivateProfileInt, addr Position, addr Y, 200, addr iniString
        mov        MainDialogY, eax

        invoke        MessageBox, NULL, addr MainDialogX, addr Msg1Cap, MB_OK


        invoke        ExitProcess, 0

end start

The variable 'MainDialogX' for some reason will not hold the value that is returned by 'GetPrivateProfileInt', what kind of variable shold it be?

Not to sound stupid but..

did you try changing the "Msg1Cap" to "MainDialogX"?

Like so...


invoke MessageBox, NULL, addr MainDialogY, addr MainDialogX, MB_OK





I got the value to appear in the Caption of the msgbox..but i havent been able to add the " MainDialogX = " part to it yet.


Does this help at all?
