  BOOL Chord( int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int x3, int y3, int x4,
              int y4 );
  BOOL Chord( LPRECT lpRect, POINT ptStart, POINT ptEnd );
 
  Parameter   Description
 
  <x1>        Specifies the x-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the
              chord's bounding rectangle (in logical units).
 
  <y1>        Specifies the y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the
              chord's bounding rectangle (in logical units).
 
  <x2>        Specifies the x-coordinate of the lower-right corner of the
              chord's bounding rectangle (in logical units).
 
  <y2>        Specifies the y-coordinate of the lower-right corner of the
              chord's bounding rectangle (in logical units).
 
  <x3>        Specifies the x-coordinate of the point that defines the
              chord's starting point (in logical units).
 
  <y3>        Specifies the y-coordinate of the point that defines the
              chord's starting point (in logical units).
 
  <x4>        Specifies the x-coordinate of the point that defines the
              chord's endpoint (in logical units).
 
  <y4>        Specifies the y-coordinate of the point that defines the
              chord's endpoint (in logical units).
 
  <lpRect>    Specifies the bounding rectangle (in logical units). You can
              pass either a LPRECT or a ◄CRect► object for this
              parameter.
 
  <ptStart>   Specifies the x- and y-coordinates of the point that defines
              the chord's starting point (in logical units). This point
              does not have to lie exactly on the chord. You can pass
              either a ◄POINT► structure or a ◄CPoint► object for this
              parameter.
 
  <ptEnd>     Specifies the x- and y-coordinates of the point that defines
              the chord's ending point (in logical units). This point does
              not have to lie exactly on the chord. You can pass either a
              ◄POINT► structure or a ◄CPoint► object for this parameter.
 
  Remarks
 
  Draws a chord (a closed figure bounded by the intersection of an ellipse
  and a line segment). The (<x1>, <y1>) and (<x2>, <y2>) parameters
  specify the upper-left and lower-right corners, respectively, of a
  rectangle bounding the ellipse that is part of the chord. The (<x3>,
  <y3>) and (<x4>, <y4>) parameters specify the endpoints of a line that
  intersects the ellipse. The chord is drawn by using the selected pen and
  filled by using the selected brush.
 
  Return Value
 
  TRUE if the chord is drawn; otherwise FALSE.
