The DeletePort function displays a dialog box that allows the user to delete a port name.
BOOL DeletePort(
| LPTSTR pName, | // pointer to server name |
| HWND hWnd, | // handle to window that displays dialog box |
| LPTSTR pPortName | // pointer to port name |
| ); |
Parameters

Handle to the parent window of the port-deletion dialog box.
pPortName
Pointer to a zero-terminated string that specifies the name of the port that should be deleted.
Return Values

Remarks
An application can retrieve the names of valid ports by calling the EnumPorts function.
The DeletePort function returns an error if a printer is currently connected to the specified port.
The caller of the AddPort function must have SERVER_ACCESS_ADMINISTER access to the server to which the port is connected.
