Hi! Anybody know how to interface a transmitter of RC helicopter with the parallel port? The transmitter has joysticks. I have to control it with my GUI in visual basic. I'm not good at it. Please help. Thanks!

As vb5 (hi mate) mentioned, you need to manipulate the ports via API. If you are already struggling with the basics of vb6, this might be a challenging task.
