- It doesn't seem to be possible to do that directly in Visual Basic (though
- I may be wrong). I beleive you will have to write a VBX (normally in C) and
- add it to your VB environment.

- Desaware sells an add-on, "SpyWorks-VB", that seems to do that and more.
- I beleive MicroHelp has a CallBack VBX as well.
