    Post What is the VB equivalent of a Quick Basic "Out &H3BC, 255" command?

    I have been using Quick Basic to send commands to controller boards that I have installed in my PC. A typical Quick Basic command might be: Out &H3BC, 255. You probably know that this "Out" command writes the binary equivalent of "255" at memory address &H3BC.

    Does anyone know an equivalent command in Visual Basic?

    Post No, there's no Out

    I'm sorry to tell you that VB does not include In / Out instructions.
    But you can download an InpOut dll from Internet.
    There are plenty of them, however I recommend you InpOut32.dll.
    Once installed in your system it works just
    as old QuickBasic in / out.

    InpOut32 can be found here:

    GoodLuck
