;   Parameters
;   pszFile [in]
;   Type: LPCSTR
;
;   A pointer to a null-terminated string of maximum length MAX_PATH that contains the path to be searched.
;
;   pszSpec [in]
;   Type: LPCSTR
;
;   A pointer to a null-terminated string of maximum length MAX_PATH that contains the file type for which to search. For example, to test whether pszFile is a .doc file, pszSpec should be set to "*.doc".
;
;   Return value
;   Type: BOOL

;   Returns TRUE if the string matches, or FALSE otherwise.

; Note: There might be a quirk with the function PathMatchSpec, when using a filename, which contains one or more semicolons.
