Has anyone any ideas on the best way to get access to windows API functions?

you need to write your own interface to them, or wait until someone else does.

take a look in \mod\pub.mod\win32.mod for some of the win32 stuff already

Also see samples\birdie\mods\TWin32\ Plenty of stuff in there.

I looked in Birdie's folder and it looks like he did a lot of work for us! But I am still unclear as to how to use that information to access the Win32 API... Russell

There's a few useful Win32 API links on this Purebasic forum page. http://purebasic.myforums.net/viewtopic.php?t=10046

Axeman using API's in Purebasic is easy! But in Blitzmax I get crap back when info is returning via a structure. I could not find any examples in Birdies dir that used the API functions stuff he wrote.
