Read the help.  Or look at the header file (winuser.h) where tagMSG is
declared.  You will see that the members are 'wParam' and 'lParam' (note the
lower-case 'W' and 'L').

TeamB members aren't perfect -- they make mistakes just like the rest of us
mortals.  So just because you got something from a TeamB member doesn't
necessarily mean it's accurate.  Many times people here answer questions
with pseudo-code or don't bother testing what they use as an example.  So
you should always do a little extra research after you receive some sample
code to make sure that it correctly applies to your situation and/or that is
written correctly.
