Comments

The MAKEMCIRESOURCE macro is used for constructing a longword value that can be returned in a command structure’s dwReturn member. Structures for the MCI_GETDEVCAPS and MCI_STATUS commands contain this member. Extended commands can also include this structure member. The MAKEMICRESOURCE macro is used in combination with the MCI_RESOURCE_RETURNED and MCI_RESOURCE_DRIVER return values for DriverProc. See Returning Information to Applications.
