Don't use undocumented calls and >be sure to test for hardware failures to be able to work around them. I can't think of a time when I have *ever* used an undocumented call to the Windows API. I've wasted thousands of hours on calls that were inadequately documented, or incorrectly documents and on calls that did not actually operate in accordance with the documentation. I never claimed it was impossible to write stable applications for Windows. It is and I've written many. But it has frquently taken a lot longer that it should have because of those issues with the API's and their documentation. -- |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| | Malcolm Hoar "The more I practice, the luckier I get". | | malch@malch.com Gary Player. | | http://www.malch.com/ Shpx gur PQN. | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
