NAME
    CxMsgData -- obtain a pointer to a commodity message's data area. (V36)

SYNOPSIS
    data = CxMsgData(cxm);
                     A0

    UBYTE *CxMsgData(struct CxMsg *);

FUNCTION
    Most commodity messages contain meaningful data, such as an inputevent
    structure. This function returns a pointer to this data.

    You may get a commodity message from a synchronous (custom object) or
    asynchronous (sender object) source. In the second case, 'data' is
    not valid after you have replied to the message.

INPUTS
    cxm - the commodity message to get the data pointer from

RESULTS
    data - a pointer to the message's data, or NULL if 'cxm' is NULL.
