I need to use the following function of the Windows API:

Reason to use long: because most (of the few) examples I find on the web use this

Because booleans in VB6/VBA are not the same as the BOOL type. They are different sizes (2 bytes in VB and 4 in Win32 API - basically an INT) and True is -1 in VBA but 1 in the API.

BOOL and BOOLEAN are not the same (confusingly). In their typedef statements BOOL is INT, BOOLEAN is Byte.
