Communication between VB.NET/ VB6 appl.

[Marty]

Hi,

Is there a fast way to enable communication between two application.
One made in VB.NET and the other in VB6 ?

I was thinking to create a socket communication but, there may be
something better.

Thank you

Marty

An alternative to sockets is using the 'WM_COPYDATA' message. I don't know
if this is the fastest way to interchange data between two applications. A
sample written by Tom Shelton [MVP] can be found here:
