GetPrivateProfileInt函数返回值有关问题

GetPrivateProfileInt函数返回值问题！
请问GetPrivateProfileInt函数返回值能用WORD类型接收吗？会有什么不良后果吗？

[解决办法]
UINT GetPrivateProfileInt(
LPCTSTR lpAppName,
LPCTSTR lpKeyName,
INT nDefault,
LPCTSTR lpFileName
);

[解决办法]
UINT

为啥用 WORD？
[解决办法]
WORD 16-bit unsigned integer.
This type is declared in WinDef.h as follows:
typedef unsigned short WORD;


UINT Unsigned INT.
This type is declared in WinDef.h as follows:
typedef unsigned int UINT;
[解决办法]
所以，
用 WORD 可能会丢失高位的信息。
