where to find API enum values at MSDN site

the win32 API documentation references a lot of symbolic values.
FILE_SHARE_READ, GENERIC_WRITE, ...

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms959950.aspx

are the actual values enumerated at the MSDN site? I know I can find
them in the C++ header files, just would like to have a definitive
place on MSDN to find all the values.

Steve,

That's the thing, the header files for the most recent SDK are the
authority on these values. Putting them on the website wouldn't make a
difference, because if they changed them, then that means the OS has
changed, which means the SDK has changed!

The best bet is to get them from the header files.

You can also check out http://www.pinvoke.net. People are pretty good
at keeping the definitions up-to-date there.

Hope this helps.
