COM based connection point

Hi,

I'm new to VB.net and I'm using .net V3.5
I'm also new to connection points and have a very sketchy understanding of COM objects.

What I'm trying to do is use a connection point to perform IPC with another application. My VB.net project will be the server side, and the other application is the client.

The other developer (in russia no less :) has created a C++ project that defines and extendes a COM object for connection points.
I have used tlbimp.exe to produce a dll from the .tlb files created by the C++ client, and referenced the dll in my VB project. I can now declare a class of the type I need, it's called _ICuesHDEvents.

So now I have this _ICuesHDEvents object in my project, I need to somehow subscribe(I think)? delegates or callbacks(I think?) in my project in such a way that when the functions or evets get triggered in the client app, they will call functions in my (VB) server app, which I will then handle.



my questios: Am I on the right track here? Do I have any of this right? MOST importantly, where do I go now?

sorry for being such a noob to this but I've just found the web information about this topic pretty sketchy and hard to understand.


Thanks so much for any help on this issue, I need it badly right now! :)

Cheers,
Eddie
