Syntax

WinOpenObject(objectHandle, viewForObject, flag)

Parameters

objectHandle - HOBJECT - input
Handle of the object to open.
viewForObject - ULONG - input
Specifies which view to open. An object can define its own view codes. The system defines those listed in the constants section.
flag - BOOL - input
  • TRUE - Opens a view of the object which already exists by calling wpViewObject, otherwise by calling wpOpen.
  • FALSE - Opens a view of the object by calling wpOpen.

Constants

  • OPEN_CONTENTS
  • OPEN_DEFAULTS
  • OPEN_DETAILS
  • OPEN_HELP
  • OPEN_RUNNING
  • OPEN_SETTINGS
  • OPEN_TREE
