Shamil, I understand that they still exist, however everything I have read says that .NET is trying to wrap them and present them as properties of .NET objects, thus allowing you to avoid having to make such API calls directly. Obviously everything hasn't been wrapped yet. Thanks for the references. I am adding them to my browser bookmarks. John W.
