Solved How to Get Mousewheel To do anything?

[habit]

How does one get a wheelstate from mousewheel?

For example say I wanted to make a program detect whether or not mousewheel was getting scrolled up or down, and if it got scrolled down, it would output a message with cout?

I tried googling for like 2 days straight, its just not coming up?

In you wndproc callback, handle WM_SCROLL input.

still don't understand how this could be used with say a if statement like GetaSyncKeyState was for key presses :/
