nIndex | int Specifies the byte offset of the value to be retrieved. It can also be one of the following values: | ||
Value | Meaning | ||

The return value specifies the value retrieved from the WNDCLASS structure.
To access any extra two-byte values allocated when the window-class structure was created, use a positive byte offset as the index specified by the nIndex parameter, starting at zero for the first two-byte value in the extra space, 2 for the next two-byte value and so on.
