CreateFile library error

[DSMan195276]

That helps and is a real pita because:

  32-bit = Long/_Unsigned Long
  64-bit = _Integer64/_Offset

never seemed clear to me because of the function declaration is CreateFile%& as well..

Erik.

That's note quite right, `_Offset` is not the same thing as `_Integer64`.

`_Offset` is special, it is 32-bits wide on 32-bit QB64, and 64-bits wide on 64-bit QB64. It is a different size depending on the version used, which is also why you need to use it to represent types like `HANDLE` which also differ in size in C++ depending on the platform. To make cross-platform programs you have to use `_Offset` to represent C++ types like pointers which are a different size on different platforms.
