OK here we go again.
What I was saying is that I already got some info (via product support here in holland) on how to pass a struct of simple dwords
to a Windows-function, and how to break it down to pieces to get some info.
However the struct of the Windows GetPrinter() function is quite a bit more complicated.
It has Strings,Dwords AND pointers to another struct. (DEVMODE).
I don't see how to pass it.

Hope you can give
