My "RunDemos" creates an  organized list of all the Win32Lib samples, with
descriptions, allowing easy locating of function implementation & running &
viewing code , and I'm working right now on improvements for it that will
allow easier adding & removing of demos from its list of demos.  It's
included with Win32Lib, but there may be a more recent version at:

For tutorials on Win32Lib, try Wolfgang Fritz's very good one, at:
