Using Win32 API

[N Raja]

Hello,
I am new to VB programming, and finding it very tiresome to declare all these api before i can use them. Some once told me that there are type libraries available for this, does some one know where I can find them and how to use them.

Thanks,
N. Raja

It is not - just use 'API Text Viewer' in Visual Studio 6.0 Tools program group.

Using type libraries can save few bytes in your EXE, but, if you use them, your code won't be self contained, and you won't be able to pass your code modules to other programmers easily. Also, modifying declarations is not easy and can break any previous version of your VB code.
