Hi,

Does anyone on the list know how to obtain the string value of an HResult from a windows function declare?

I'm trying to get some simple directsound/directX functions to work. MSDN gives the possible return vales as:

If the function succeeds, the return value is DS_OK.
If the function fails, the return value may be one of the following error values:
DSERR_ALLOCATED
DSERR_INVALIDPARAM
DSERR_NOAGGREGATION
DSERR_NODRIVER
DSERR_OUTOFMEMORY

Supposedly HResult is a 32 bit value so I'm storing the result as an integer in RB. Is there a way to map the integer to the correct result string?

This <http://blogs.msdn.com/heaths/archive/2005/07/21/441391.aspx> should get you started.
