Liberty BASIC Help Online

Informational resources about APIs/DLLs
 
This help file is a basic introduction for using Windows APIs and DLLs in Liberty Basic.  For a detailed understanding of reasons and procedures for using APIs and DLLs, it is necessary to study a separate volume that explains Windows programming in detail.
 
Microsoft includes detailed references with its C compilers, but it is usually good to supplement these with other books.  Here are some suggestions:
 
For a general understanding of Windows 95+ (32 bit Windows) programming:
 
    Programming Windows, The Definitive Guide to the Win32 API

For a catalog of Windows API calls and their function:
