Several of the more advanced Delphi books deal with API programming, but
as far as I know, there is no book (or text file) that would serve as a
reference on this. (A new book, not yet in print the last time I
checked, Delphi 3 Super Bible MIGHT serve this purpose, but it
apparently won't be out before the new version ships.) About the only
two alternatives seem to be the help files, or get one of the advanced
texts, and a good book on the Windows API, and work through it.
