These are not 32-bit functions. They are 16-bit functions. While they are supported (in os2286.lib and appropriate system .DLL files), they aren't documented in the OS/2 2.0 toolkit/manuals, since it is a 32-bit toolkit. I suggest you find either a book on 16-bit OS/2 programming or locate the OS/2 1.3 toolkit. I think it can still be gotten, but I don't know what price it'll be selling for. >Now for the real reason for this posting: I notice that a number >of people are posting questions about this and no one seems to >have the definitive answer: an IBM manual to refer to! Any IBM manuals on OS/2 1.3. >IBMer's: You really didn't overlook these important functions >when creating the OS/2 2.0 manuals, did you? I'd be surprised if this entire class of functions was omitted by accident. -- |) David Charlap "TELEPHONE, n.
