Entire List of All Windows Constants
#1
I have converted the entire collection of constants used by Windows. It has been formatted to fit QB64 format. I figure this is a useful resource to have on hand when an API call wants certain values, you can find them here. I say it is a 'resource' not a module, because  I doubt seriously anyone wants to include over 6000 constants into a program you're writing when you just need a handful. To make it easier to read, the entries are single spaced, and organized by first letter, except where a constant depends on another one. I have left such 'dependencies' in as they document something about the relevant API call.

Since this will help me a lot in various Windows calls I figure it might be valuable for others. It is included as an attachment to this message.

Just one small thing to contribute to the community, as a tiny contribution to add to the effort expended by others.

Holy cow, that certainly took a lot of time to compile. Thank you for sharing this.
