I have a suspicion that this (and similar) code samples should probably
not be posted to this list; can everyone please snip their quotes of it. It
looks a bit copyright to me. So I googled the q number. Found it in a
couple of places.

Oh dear. Word-for-word copying of M$ proprietary source into an open
source project? TCSH-L added. I dunno what the status is of SDK source
code examples but it's certainly M$ copyright; someone should look at the
licensing terms.

There's a different way of doing it, just frex. Opening a file and
reading a few bytes out of a couple of structs is something that can be done
in standard posix C without even breaking a sweat.
