Clearing memory in structures

[Dan]

In C, it's usually necessary to clear the memory in structures before passing
them to certain WinAPI functions. How would one do that in VB.NET?

You don't need to do that because VB automatically initializes numeric
variables with value 0.

Thanks, but I wasn't asking about numeric variables. Does it initialize all
the memory contained in a structure to 0? And, supposing that I did want to
clear the memory in structure, how would I do that?
