USB vendor or product ID

[DUG123]

We have a system that uses a USB device and I wrote the code in VB6. I want the software to run when the USB device is plugged into the PC. Is there a way to command the PC to run my executable when it detects my vendor or product ID? Thank you.

It looks like you need to implement IHWEventHandler in an ActiveX DLL and then register your DLL as an AutoHandler.
