I'm trying to get BlitzMax to call a Windows API function, without much success... Anyone can shed some light on what I need to do here?

Global SetSystemPowerState(fSuspend, fForce) "win32"

lib = LoadLibraryA ("kernel32.dll")
If lib
   SetSystemPowerState = GetProcAddress(lib, "SetSystemPowerStateA")
Else
   Print "Dead"; End
EndIf

SetSystemPowerState(0,0)

It compiles without error, but attempting to run it returns the error: Attempt to call uninitialized function pointer

Any help would be appreciated!
