Function name : OemToChar

Group: String - Library: user32

Translates a string from the OEM-defined character set into either an ANSI or a wide-character string.

Code examples:

Converting strings between ANSI and OEM

Declaration:

BOOL OemToChar(
  LPCSTR lpszSrc,  // string to translate
  LPTSTR lpszDst   // translated string
);

FoxPro declaration:

DECLARE SHORT OemToChar IN user32;
	STRING lpszSrc,;
	STRING @ lpszDst

Parameters:

lpszSrc [in] Pointer to a null-terminated string of characters from the OEM-defined character set.

lpszDst [out] Pointer to the buffer for the translated string.

Return value:

The return value is always nonzero except when you pass the same address to lpszSrc and lpszDst in the wide-character version of the function. In this case the function returns zero and GetLastError returns ERROR_INVALID_ADDRESS.
