>The term Win32 API is a bit ambiguous depending on your reference point. As far as Windows is concerned it refers to all the DLLs (and other files such as WINSPOOL.DRV) that Windows uses to run.

>As far as the FoxPro DECLARE DLL statement is concerned, including IN Win32API as the library tells VFP to search in KERNEL32.DLL, GDI32.DLL, USER32.DLL, MPR.DLL, and ADVAPI32.DLL for the function definition. This does not, however, include other files which are part of the API, such as the aforementioned WINSPOOL.DRV or SHELL32.DLL.
Thanks Guys !,
But, something else, to use the function that I need in Visual Basic I can't use
"Win32api", I have to use the the name of the DLL that holds the function
that I need, am I correct ?
Thanks again for your help.
