API structure

[chippy73]

I want to use the following:-

CallFunction(0,"ReadConsoleInputA",hConsoleInput.l, lpBuffer.PUT_RECORD, nLength.l, lpNumberOfEventsRead.l)

Can someone help me with structuring of the parameters and also the PUT_RECORD layout.

I don't know how to define them.

Many thanks

Alan
