Default Hard Question...


I am trying to do something with MSN Messenger. I want to be able to type possibly in the IM chat window something like "/online" or "/away" and when I type one of those in it would either show me as online or away. Is this possible in VB6 and does anyone know how or a website to show me how?-thanks

Go to Project ---> References, then add messenger type 1.0 controls to your project. You should be able to make a messenger manipulator with that. In the object browser you can see what methods/properties every object has and what they do.

I tried to make something like that too a while back, I don't exactly know how it works but just mess around with it and you'll find out. I tried to make a program that could flood an MSN conversation but for some reason MSN froze up every time I sent a message.

If you type 'dim msn as' and then press space you see a combo box with all the objects you can choose from. I believe the one you're looking for is named IMessenger or Messenger. The object browser is an icon in your toolbar, there you can read what all the objects do.

I found it. But...this is going to take a pretty good while. I don't exactly know what to do from there.
