I am using a vb sample to develop my vfp 6 project. The vb code assigns names and assigns long integers:
Declare Function HeapAlloc Lib "kernel32" (ByVal hHeap As Long, ByVal dwFlags As Long, ByVal dwBytes As Long) As Long

I initially converted it to:
declare long HeapAlloc in kernel32.dll long hHeap, long dwFlags, long dwBytes

But then noticed a VFP snippet in the thread that did:
DECLARE Integer HeapAlloc in Win32Api Integer, Integer, Integer

Are there significance differences between long and integer types?
Do I need the names (ex hHeap)?
My VFP editor accepted the "any" type. Is that okay, though undocumented?
Thanks
Terry
