I'm kinda new to (and kinda dumb about) Win32 programming. Can somebody
tell me what's in the standard win32 dll's (i.e. GDI32.DLL, etc.)? My
computer won't allow QuickView.

Short answer: thousands of inscrutable calls to Windows internals.
Longer answer: There are lots of (thick) books available, as well as
the API documentation available on Borland's website. Plus an
unknown number of "undocumented" calls kept secret by Micro$oft.
I have one book on the Win API - 1098 pages, but it's just an overview,
not enough details to get all the calls to work.
BTW: it does no good to try to view these DLL's, it's all machine code.

Some of thefunctions of the Dll's would be shown in the win32 demos.
All?... I would ask that question. :)

Hmm... Do you have laying around the calls to the standard DLL's, and
how to call them? (C_LONG, U_LONG, etc)
Thanx in advance.

I have a list of Win 3.1 calls, but in Pascal calling convention.
