How to use &H10

[Marc Eggenberger]

Hi there.

With the API I often see declarations which look like:

const int HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001;

but when I enter this in my project (.NET 1.1) I get an

The Name H80000001 does not exist in the class or namespace?

Why is it always written like this but does not work with me?

Thanks for any help.

If you are writing in C#, it's:

const int HKEY_... = 0x800...;

if it is VB.NET I guess it should look like this:

const HKEY_... as integer = &H800... (semicolon removed)
