Default Greg Wilson - XY coordinates of a worksheet

Greg Wilson ....

You mentioned a function to determine the X-Y coordinates of a
worksheet in the following post. The link does not work any longer -
do you still have the example available?

_______________________________
"The code below will return the x- and y-coordinates in pixels as
opposed to
points. Note that it is also window based instead of worksheet based.
Doing
something with it is the challenge:

Declare Function GetCursorPos Lib "user32" (lpPoint As POINTAPI) As
Long
Type POINTAPI
x As Long
y As Long
End Type


Sub xxx()
Dim pos As POINTAPI
GetCursorPos pos
MsgBox pos.x & vbCr & pos.y
End Sub


I have recently posted code that determines the position of the top-
left
corner of the worksheet in pixels and also converts pixels to points
and
compensates (albeit not perfectly) for zoom. You need to know the
position of
the top-left corner of the worksheet in pixels so that you can
subtract the
correct offsets if you are to convert to points. You can thus direct
the
cursor to a specified point within the worksheet. If you're
interested:
