Hi, In my MSDN library, loads of stuff to do with WIN32 is missing, important stuff to such as the list of functions. I want to make some edit boxes but I can't as that section is missing, I would also like to load a sialog box that I have created in the recource editor, but again I can't find this out. Could anyone tell me a place where I could download the help file(s) for the win32 api? Thanks Edited by - Gomacadeshez on 12/28/00 10:15:33 AM

Hi,

Try the online MSDN library at:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp
Just click on the 'Platform SDK' section and then Win32 API. Hope that's what you're looking for. You can't (AFAIK) actually download it though.

You can download the platform SDK from http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/setuplauncher.htm
This is basically the same as MSDN without some of the articles and books.
When I recently checked this page, it referred to the download as being the SDK for Whistler beta 1, but I think most of the info in it is still relevant. Check it out.

ftp://ftp.borland.com/pub/delphi/techpubs/delphi2/win32.zip

this is a little older then the one that comes with modern compilers but the difference is of little concern..it contains most kernel32, gdi32 and user32 api functions

mmedia.hlp is also usefull if you can find it...try looking on assembler sites, because most C, C++ etc compilers come with them

if you already have one you should find them in folders such as borland shared

eh?

I have found I do actualy have it, it was some strange bug. It only shows the pages if I look through the entire collection. If I search the platform SDK exclusivly it cant find the chm files, otherwise it seems to be fine

Thanks anyway
