Brad,
next to Lees suggestion looking at the MSDN, you can also take a look at
http://www.news2news.com/vfp/
It's a superb description on how to declare and use API-Functions in VFP
(with examples).
ShowWindow's second parameter is how the window is shown.
For a list valid values, do a search on google:

Cheers
