Access Windows about box

[A.A. Fussy]

How would I access the standard windows about-like ythe ne that appears when
you select help-about in Explorer-in VB6 I was able to use code to customize
it-anything similar to this in vb.net?

This is a VB6 sample - converting it to .NET should be easy:

Private Declare Function ShellAbout Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellAboutA"
(ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal szApp As String, ByVal szOtherStuff As String,
ByVal hIcon As Long) As Long

Private Sub Form_Load()
ShellAbout hWnd, "My Project Name ", _
"This product was developed by Me!", hIcon
End Sub
