Bas files are a place to store functions and sub. That's all. All you do is call the subs or functions from your form.

Code:
Sub:
'Example Sub to send text to the aol chat room
Call SendChat "Hi! This is text coming from VB to the aol chat room."

Function:
'Function that finds the aol window
If aol() = 0 Then 
Msgbox "The AOL window was not found!", 16
Else
Msgbox "The AOL window has been found!", 64
End If
Just examples of how to use aol bas files. And what they mean is, that they wrote the bas files..or at least they say they do and they don't want you to make a bas file and copy their subs and functions into your bas file and call it yours.
