Laptop Charge

I wasn't sure which category to put this in, but how would you be able to get the current level of charge on a laptop?
Josh.

I can't see anything particularly difficult that might be causing your problem; it appears to be a straightforward API to use. Do make sure you adhere to the MSDN documentation in every detail.
The only pitfall I can see which might possibly trip you up is that the Spare1[4] in the SYSTEM_BATTERY_STATE structure must be converted to Spare1%(3) in BBC BASIC, because the suffix is the maximum value of the subscript not the number of elements.
If you're still having problems, post the code which is failing.
