I'm not George, but it looks like the return codes are:

If non-zero: It worked.

If zero, an error occurred, and you need to call GetLastError to return an extended error code describing why it failed.

the prototype for GetLastError() is

DECLARE INTEGER GetLastError IN Win32API

The value returned by GetLastError() cn be checked against the errors in WINERRORS.H in VC++
