WM_LBUTTONDOWN
fwKeys = wParam; /* key flags */
xPos = LOWORD(lParam); /* horizontal position of cursor */
yPos = HIWORD(lParam); /* vertical position of cursor */
The WM_LBUTTONDOWN message is posted when the user presses the left mouse button while the mouse cursor is in the client area of a window. If the mouse is not captured, the message is posted to the window beneath the cursor. Otherwise, the message is posted to the window that has captured the mouse.
