Hi Eli,
Wouldn't it be better to just use DWORD which is what is used in the
ms docs for GetLastError etc? Maybe that would confuse newcomers quite
a bit less?

Oh, sorry. Thanks.

When that has been done I think using LPTSTR would be best. Maybe
putting a note there why it is not LPTSTR today would be good?

It just looked strange to me that they all three have the same value.
Is that how it normally looks then a2 and a3 are not given?

I guess it is sometning with the encoding, but I really have no more
accurate idea of it.
