GlobalGetAtomName()
Get the name of an atom in the system atom table
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Syntax
GlobalGetAtomName( <hAtom> )   -->   cName

Arguments
<hAtom> is the handle of the atom whose name is wanted.

Returns
If successful, this function returns the name of the atom.
Otherwise, NIL is returned.

Description
This function returns the string (name) of an atom in the
system-wide atom table maintained by Windows.  An atom may be
any string, excluding null characters, although you should
keep them reasonably short (to avoid consuming too much
memory).

You will probably only use atoms if you are programming DDE.

Example
cAtom = iif( nAtom == 0, "<none>", GlobalGetAtomName( nAtom ) )
