    And BTW, if you have any other questions about DX, maybe you should post them in the game section...

    The problem with posting in some of these forums is that few people go there.

    As for using Direct X, there are many books on the subject, which kind of suggests that you won't get much useful info here. If you can buy an entire book, even a well written one, and it doesn't cover the entire question you just asked, you might try narrowing down the question.

    I am always in the game section answering q's for DX and other stuff....and if it a book he nee, maybe try the "Visual Basic game programming with DirectX written by Jonathan S. Harbour. That one should make you up to date on DX for VB...

    An excellent suggestion. I certainly had the impression that this was a very broad question.

    I just didn't bother to edit the post since mine was clickable.
