VB does not have a keyword for this. VB.Net offers access to managed
assemblies and native dlls (platform invoke). Look for a tool/library that
can perform the required task. You don't have a problem with the VB.Net
language.

An alternate way of accomplishing what you want, converting Word and
Txt file into PDFs, is to get a "free" PDF converted. This converter
works as a printer driver. Therefore, you send your Word or Txt file
to the printer, select the PDF printer and you're done. It might need
user intervention, but it will work.
Get a copy of the free PDF at www.pdf995.com
