I'm trying to learn about DllCall(), and what functions can be called with it, but i'm having trouble figuring out what's out there.

Is there some kind of resource/list enumerating functions and their uses in commonly used dlls somewhere? I know there's gotta be, but i couldn't find it on mdsn or from google (and here). Just some links would be great.

Thanks.

Hi, like the functionname already says, you call a function inside a dll. Normally you call functions in common dlls, for example gdi32.dll for drawing. you need to look up the funktions and more important the parameters in msdn, which is the "documentation" for all windows dlls.

eg.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms532314%28VS.85%29.aspx

if you dont know how dlls work, you should not use this advanced feature of ahk. because its more MFC programming than ahk. you should search the scripts+functions section in the forum to get many-many examples, especially gdi.
