DirectX 8.0 and VB 6.0 (Urgent) -
Hello to all Forum Members!
I'm very new to DirectX programming in VB. I have a very basic doubt. I have developed a Sound Recording program using DX 8.0 and now I want to build an Installer for the same. I'm not sure which files I should include in installer to consider the Installer ready with DX8.0. Is it enough to include dx8vb.dll file or are there any other files which I need to re-distribute with my Installer? I need this to know at earliest. Please help me in this!
Waiting for your reply ...
Regards,
Ruturaj.
Need a constant value -
I need the value for the obsolete constant WM_CTLCOLOR. None of the C header files shipped with Win2K SDK have it. Instead they ask us to use WM_CTLCOLORSCROLLBAR (for notification of coloring the scroll bar for instance) etc. My MSDN (Oct 2001) does not have documentation of WM_CTLCOL
VB and DirectX -

Directx in VB or C++ -
Hey everyone. I have been told by many people that directx for c++ has way more features than directx for VB. I am learning directx for VB but I was wondering if I was just waisting my time and should learn it for C++ instead. Are there more features for the C++ version?
Why does the new DirectX SDK have only C++ examples -
I'm curious as to why there are no longer VB .Net examples with the DirectX SDK. Does Microsoft not want anyone using VB .Net for creating applications and/or games that use DirectX? In fact, the new DirectX SDK has eliminated all the examples for C# also.

Is this true -
DirectX gets closer to the hardware than VB does, hence it's much faster than any other API function. To integrate DirectX with VB, you need a type library (which can be downloaded from Microsoft's website).
Go to http://www.microsoft.com/directx for more information.

DirectX references -
So, using VB.NET and just downloaded the DirectX 9.0 SDK. After installing it (I'm not saying succesfully, but it didn't report an error) you should add a reference Microsoft.DirectX to your project. But, what is that, there is no Microsoft.DirectX in the whole list .
Well, so, I've

Which DirectX is best -
I have worked with DirectX 7, but want to start using C++ 7 with either DirectX 8 or 9. I have heard some rumor that 8 was much different from 7, but that 9 came closer to 7. With all that flopping around, I figure somebody here will have a preference between the three.
