Windows API: Extracting hight and low order values

Robert,

If you have this prototype:

ScWndProc   PROCEDURE(UNSIGNED hWnd,   |
                      UNSIGNED uMsg,   |
                      UNSIGNED wParam, |
                      LONG lParam)!,LONG,PASCAL

As Edward notes, the word order of an Intel 32 bit integer is reversed,
so define this structure over the wParam to get the low order word
containing the scroll bar value.

wP  GROUP,OVER(wParam)
low     USHORT
high    USHORT
    END

Then you can do some thing like:

CASE wP.low
OF SB_LEFT
  !handle the upper left scroll
....
END

Cheers,
Larry Sand

| Hi All,

box. I

not able

low-order

work
