The pywin32 documentation tends not to duplicate information already
available via MSDN (whether in a local installation or at
msdn.microsoft.com) on the underlying Win32 API, so when in doubt,
that's where to look. Then, the pywin32 documentation will sometimes
qualify how the Python interface maps that function.

But in particular, a general rule (as has already been posted) is that
any out parameters are aggregated along with the overall result code
into a result tuple.
