RasCreatePhonebookEntry

The RasCreatePhonebookEntry function creates a new phone-book entry. The function displays a dialog box in which the user types information for the phone-book entry.

Windows NT/2000: The RasCreatePhonebookEntry function calls the RasEntryDlg function. Applications written for Windows NT version 4.0 should use RasEntryDlg.

DWORD RasCreatePhonebookEntry(
  HWND hwnd,              // handle to the parent window of the dialog box
  LPCTSTR lpszPhonebook,  // pointer to the full path and file name of the 
                          // phone-book file
);

Parameters

hwnd
Handle to the parent window of the dialog box.
lpszPhonebook
Windows NT/2000: Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the full path and file name of a phone-book (PBK) file.

Windows 95: Dial-up networking stores phone-book entries in the registry rather than in a phone-book file.
