Hello Mike!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Actually, only the 16-bit API calls (VioXXXXX, MouXXXXX etc.) are defined
to use the pascal calling convention. All the 32-bit API calls are defined
to use the syscall (or 'system' depending on your compiler) calling
convention which is more than slightly different :-)
From OS2DEF.H from BCOS2 v1.0 (with a few lines removed, but none altered):
#ifdef __BORLANDC__
#define APIENTRY _syscall
#define APIENTRY16 _far16 _pascal
#else
#define APIENTRY _System
#define APIENTRY16 _Far16 _Pascal
#endif
bcnu,
Richard.
