Error in Mouse Programmer's Reference Match Statement

Last reviewed: September 16, 1996
Article ID: Q44425

The code on Page 43 of the first edition of the "Microsoft Mouse Programmer's Reference" published by Microsoft Press is incorrect. The strings in the MATCH statement must be in uppercase letters.

To correct this problem, change the string "a:" to "A:". The code should read as follows:

   checka: MATCH 2,1,normal,"A:",tob,checkb
