    Ya know what, I've been trying to create a direct API for my VB6 app for god knows how long. To tell you the truth, I just don't know how to.

    But, I was able to create a means by which to have my apps communicate without a real API. I created a winsock control in each program, and had them send commands to each other through a port on the local loop back address (which, on most systems, is 127.0.0.1).

    I'm not sure if you'd want to do that, but it's the only means I could find that really works well. Hope that helps. :P
