in reply to Suggestions for a new Perl Win32::API User?

Another good DLL to look at is ADVAPI32.DLL, especially if you need to fiddle with permissions. If you want a reference book, there are a couple on using the Win32 API with Visual Basic, which also doesn't like the API stuff much (mostly strings).

    Is the way Perl accesses the Win32::API more similar to the way C, Visual BASIC, or some other language? Have any of you read books about the Windows API and have 1 (or more) that stand out as being superior?
