2 values into a word

[GaryFrost]

need to be able to put 2 values into a word

1st value goes into the low-order of the word

2nd value goes into the high order of the word

Haven't a clue how to do this.

You certainly mean in a double word

dword= hiword* 65536 + loword

dword has the same size as an integer

here's what the documentation says:

lParam

The low-order word specifies the zero-based index of the first item to select. The high-order word specifies the zero-based index of the last item to select.

This message can select a range only within the first 65,536 items

Edit: yep that worked thanks jpm.

so my formula is correct provided hiword and loword is less than 65535 and greater or equal to 0
