    where can I find info about APIs?

    There are a lot of stuff that the API Guide doesnt have, so I decided to take a look at MSDN...
    I was looking for the GetConsoleMode function ( here's the link ). My problem is that I cant figure out the values for the constants that they list on the site. For example the ENABLE_LINE_INPUT is listed in the MSDN website but it doesnt say what is its value. How can I find out these values


    also, how do I edit these!!?!
    VB Code:
    1. BOOL GetConsoleMode(

    2.   HANDLE hConsoleHandle,

    3.   LPDWORD lpMode

    4. );

    How do I know what is HANDLE or LPDWORD in .NET?!!!

    btw the first site is identical to msdn


    ahem, I dont really care if I know how to write this particular function in vb.net... I'm just wondering if in the future I want to look for an API function, how would I know about these things? because they're not all stated in msdn
