    MSDN says the requirements for timeKillEvent are

    Windows NT/2000/XP: Included in Windows NT 3.1 and later.
    Windows 95/98/Me: Included in Windows 95 and later.

    but the requirements for timeSetEvent are

    Windows XP: Included in Windows XP only.

    Really? Since timeKillEvent uses the return value of timeSetEvent, this doesn't seem to make sense.

      I think that's incorrect - I have a very old copy of the MSDN library (October 2001) that documents timeSetEvent with:

      Windows NT/2000/XP: Included in Windows NT 3.1 and later.
      Windows 95/98/Me: Included in Windows 95 and later.
      Header: Declared in Mmsystem.h; include Windows.h.
      Library: Use Winmm.lib.

      HTH!
