Always pass strings as reference:

Declare integer InitiateSystemShutdown in win32api as DownIt;
STRING @, STRING @, INTEGER, INTEGER, INTEGER

>Does the STRING Keyword map back to LPTSTR?

Yes, but you must pass it by reference (also, declare it as passed by reference).

>Does INTEGER Keyword Map back to BOOL?

Yes.
