    API Guide

    Anyone who hasnt got this program should download it, it's excellent.

    It's a nice friendly guide to the Windows API with examples in VB and everything. Quality.

    Go to this site and then download it...

    The API guide can be useful, but you need to be careful when looking at the stuff in it. If you don't watch, you can end up working with bad conventions, or being unintentionally misled by the way things are named in there. Once you get into using API stuff more and know more about how they work, you'll start to pick up on little details like that. The toolshed prog (which I think has been renamed to API Viewer 2000), is the more useful of the two. I still use the one called toolshed because I don't really like the new one. Don't forget MSDN either . If only it had the actual constant values, it would probably outweigh the other progs completely.
