Value returned by GetDoubleClickTime API call in user32.dll

BillyRayPreachersSon · Dec 1, 2005

I've been trying to find the default value returned by the GetDoubleClickTime API call in user32.dll without much luck.

I've tried Google, MSDN, and a few other places, but nowhere seems to list the default value.

Can anyone help me out with this? I don't have any software installed on my work PC that I could write a test harness with

(

Thanks,
Dan

Default value set by Windows is 500 (milliseconds). I got 480 on my PC.

I don't understand what difficulty you face with this function. If you dont have any programming software, you can write a simple macro in Word VBA to get this parameter.

The following macro works fine in Word VBA.
___
[tt]
Private Declare Function GetDoubleClickTime Lib "user32" () As Long
Sub ShowDblClickTime()
MsgBox GetDoubleClickTime
End Sub[/tt]

Aaah - thanks for that. I had no idea that Word VBA could do this.
