MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Win32 SDK Major and Minor KBKeywordsEach KB article in the Win32 SDK collection may contain one or more product- specific keywords (called KBKeywords) that places the article in an appropriate Win32 SDK category. Each KBKeyword is composed of the concatenation of a major topic keyword and a minor topic keyword. For example, you can find all the BASE DLL articles by using BseDll as the keyword when you query the Microsoft Knowledge Base. Use the asterisk (*) wildcard to find articles that fall into the general categories or into an intermediate subcategory. For example, to find all the articles that apply to GDI issues, query on Gdi*. An article usually has only one KBKeyword, but it may have more. Here are the topics and the corresponding KBKeywords. The minor topics are in the indented list under each major topic.
