| Their is a function call in a class that says this:
m_cAlphaImage.AlphaPaintPicture Me.hdc, x, y + m_cAlphaImage.Height + 2,
lConstantAlpha:=160
What does the lConstant:=160 do?
What does := mean?
If i take out the lConstant:= part, and just leave 160....it doesn't work
anymore.

Look up "named arguments" in VB's help files.
