    Resolved Usb detection

    [Resolved]

    I need to detect the usb using the vb....

    Here is my code that gets me to DBT_DEVNODES_CHANGED:
    *************************************************
    Private Sub Form_Load()
    SetWindowLong hwnd, GWL_WNDPROC, AddressOf MyWindowProc
    End Sub
    *************************************************
    Public Function MyWindowProc(ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal Msg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal lParam As Long) As Long
    Debug.Print "WM_DEVICECHANGE " & WM_DEVICECHANGE

    If Msg = WM_DEVICECHANGE Then
    Debug.Print "wParam " & wParam

    Select Case wParam
    Case &H8000&
    Call Form1.DeviceArrival

    Case &H8004&
    Call Form1.DeviceRemoveComplete

    Case &H7&
    Dim dbHdr As DEV_BROADCAST_HDR
    CopyMemory VarPtr(dbHdr), lParam, Len(dbHdr)
    Debug.Print dbHdr.dbch_devicetype
    If dbHdr.dbch_devicetype = DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE Then
    Dim dbDdb As DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE
    CopyMemory VarPtr(dbDdb), lParam, Len(dbDdb)
    MsgBox dbDdb.dbcc_name
    End If
    End Select
    MyWindowProc = 0
    Exit Function
    End If

    MyWindowProc = CallWindowProc(glngPrevWndProc, hwnd, Msg, wParam, lParam)
    End Function
    *************************************************
    I have the API reference in the module

    Declare Sub RegisterDeviceNotification Lib "user32.dll" _
    Alias "RegisterDeviceNotificationA" ( _
    ByVal hRecipient As Long, _
    NotificationFilter As Any, _
    ByVal Flags As Long)
    *************************************************

    I am getting error msg in form load ( invalid use of addressof operator )
