OLEPOINT type

A point, with the layout of the Windows POINT structure.

OLEPOINT is a user-defined type declared in the package’s OLEGuids module, so both OLEPOINT and OLEGuids.OLEPOINT name it. It mirrors the Windows structure POINT.

Public Type OLEPOINT
    X As Long
    Y As Long
End Type

Fields

X

A Long holding the x coordinate.

Y

A Long holding the y coordinate.

Where it is used

It is the type of the PT field of OLEACCELMSG. No method of the package takes an OLEPOINT by name. IOleControlSite.TransformCoords takes a pointer to a POINTL structure, which has the same two Long fields, so the address of an OLEPOINT variable fits its pPtlHimetric parameter.
