Win32 API Programming with Visual Basic

The Win32 API, or Application Programming Interface, allows Visual Basic programmers far greater access to the inner workings of the Windows operating system without having to suffer through the steep learning curve associated with Visual C++ style Windows programming. The book is designed for users with an intermediate-level (or higher) knowledge of Visual Basic version 4 or later and a desire to stretch VB into the realm of Windows system programming. Users do not need to have any background in Visual C++, nor do they need to have any previous experience with the Win32 API. This book helps VB programmers eliminate the trial and error process that is usually associated with calling the Win32 API from Visual Basic.
