lower and higher part of a variable

[Dobromir Dimitrov]

Hello. I am new to MFC and C++ in general. I am interested in how to get the lower and higher parts of a DWORD variable?

I guess you're looking for the HIWORD and LOWORD macros. MSDN docs are here[^]

Nothing is exactly what it seems but everything with seems can be unpicked.

Have a llot at LOWORD and similar macros on MSDN http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms632659.aspx[^]. :)
