Need help

[Lanna]

Right so I was thinking it would be cool to make a virtual cellphone of sort using VB6, the one that could save contacts like traditional phones, search and delete. BUT I'm not sure if VB can handle it. I've had a bit of experience with VB but not a pro yet, and also I was thinking how could we make it seem like a real phone with multi-forms and stuff since I want the menu to appear on the white space (that is the phone screen on a real phone but here it's just a background image with white space above the numberpad), complete with number pads with alphabets on it (I could prolly drop the numberpad idea but thought I should confirm with you guys if it's possible?) and when the new (contact) button is pressed I don't want the new window to open (like it does traditionaly in VB6) just open on the same screen instead and when it's saved and I exit it it goes back to the home menu. Me and my friends been thinking about this for a while since we've done alot of non graphical vb programming which was fun but it's time ti think about complicated stuff and we thought we should confirm with you guys before going ahead with something that's really not possible and wasting our time. Thank you so much for your help.

PS: excuse us for our english, like VB we're still learning it! hope to hear from you guys soon. Take care you all.

Is it safe to assume that you are talking about developing an application that would actually run on this phone itself as opposed to one that runs on a desktop or laptop?

If so, then you are referring to what is known as "Mobile Development", and it certainly is possible.
