That's right. The Windows headers are basically in C and they define and use the typedef "BOOL". > I > have tried using BOOLEAN but the Windows API seems to use it as well. Don't know about that one. Just use the built-in "bool" and you should be o.k. so long, benny ====================================== Benjamin Riefenstahl (benny@crocodial.de) Crocodial Communications EntwicklungsGmbH Ruhrstraße 61, D-22761 Hamburg, Germany - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
