# SIMCONNECT_RECV_EVENT<no value>
The **SIMCONNECT\_RECV\_EVENT** structure is used to return an event ID to the client.

 

##### Syntax

``` cpp
struct SIMCONNECT_RECV_EVENT : public SIMCONNECT_RECV {
    DWORD  uGroupID;
    DWORD  uEventID;
    DWORD  dwData;
    };
```

|------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `uGroupID` | The ID of the client defined group, or the special case value: `UNKNOWN_GROUP` (which equals `DWORD_MAX`).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                |
| `uEventID` | The ID of the client defined event that has been requested (such as EVENT\_1 or EVENT\_BRAKES).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
| `dwData`   | This value is usually zero, but some events require further qualification. For example, joystick movement events require a movement value in addition to the notification that the joystick has been moved (see [SimConnect\_MapInputEventToClientEvent](../inputevents/simconnect-mapinputeventtoclientevent/) for more information). |

##### Remarks

This structure inherits the [SIMCONNECT\_RECV](simconnect-recv/) structure and is returned when the dwID parameter of [SIMCONNECT\_RECV](simconnect-recv/) is set to [SIMCONNECT\_RECV\_ID\_EVENT](simconnect-recv-id/). This structure is inherited by several other structures:
