    Using Parallel-Port with V.B.

    Hello,
    I want to use the P-port in my V.B project for a work I'm doing. How can I read the P-port thru V.B ? Do I need a special component to do this job..? Does anyone know of a site that distributes a component that does this ?
    Please help
    Thank-you

    Definetely you will use a component that you'll find from internet. I think it is a dll called inpout.dll Search for it or search with keywords:
    "visual basic parallel port"

    Are you attempting to use it just for output
    or is your intent to use the bi-directional capability
    of the parallel port?
