Data Type Conversion Functions

The following low-level functions convert variant data types. Higher-level variant manipulation functions (such as VariantChangeType) use these functions, but they can also be called directly.

Note

If these functions are passed NULL pointers, there will be an access violation and the program will crash. It is your responsibility to protect these functions against NULL pointers.
