[tHa-gRiM]

Ok im trying to make one to inject text into a game. I have a few DLL's where other people have done it but i cant read it . Anyways got any tutoirals on how to do it?

VB4-32bit (Enterprise edition) was able to create OLE DLL's, which are somewhat the same as ActiveX DLL's that you can create using VB5/6. However I don't think you can use them for injection into another process since you must use "regular" DLLs for that.

A "regular" DLL being a DLL with exported functions, which can be created using VB, but runs into all sorts of troubles when called from non-VB applications, due to the runtime/COM dependency.

Pena, I've seen that article and IMHO it's pretty useless. VB was not designed for old-style DLLs and compiling one and still being depended on the run-time makes it useless since you can't do anything but simple arithmetics. Just trying to show a MsgBox cause the code to fail. You can however rely on API calls, but if you do that why not write it in C directly, which would be easier.

But besides this fact, he's using VB4, which can't compile to native code so it wouldn't work in either case.

I don't think you can even call API functions. Was interesting to try, but it is useless.
