    Darn you VB!

    Hey...

    Anybody here good at VB?
    Seems that there is another tool that does what I need to do... in C++.
    I can roughly tell what it does, but I'm not quite sure how to do it in C++. Can anybody here kinda translate into the procedures that I would need to do?

    Code:
    Dim MyByte1 As Byte
        Dim MyByte4 As Byte
        Dim MyByteX As Byte
        Dim ProbeString As String
        
        'Make the 9byte magic-probe string
        MyByte1 = (Val("&H" & "02" & "&"))
        MyByte4 = (Val("&H" & "20" & "&"))
        MyByteX = (Val("&H" & "0" & "&"))
        ProbeString = Chr(MyByte1) & Chr(MyByteX) & Chr(MyByteX) & Chr(MyByte4) & Chr(MyByteX) & Chr(MyByteX) & Chr(MyByteX) & Chr(MyByteX) & Chr(MyByteX)
    Thanks for all of your help!

    You might have better luck posting on a VB forum. Try http://www.tek-tips.com/

    We are done here. Sorry, this is not a VB board and you will be better served by asking your question on a VB board.
