You're quite welcome.

BTW, one thing you have to be careful when dealing with calls to the API, especially if it involves data structures, as there is no simple equivalent in VFP -- especially if they contain pointers to buffers. Pointers in structures that are filled in by the API are one thing, pointers that you have to initialize within structures you're passing to API calls is another thing (sometimes you could luck out in particular cases as you could pass NULL pointers to specify you're not interested in receiving some sort of data back).
