From: Gary on 5 Jul 2010 12:18 I have a communication device who's drivers have installed it as a comport device in device manager (which it should). When you view the properties of the comport device (double click the device as it is listed in device manager) a custom properties page is displayed for the device by an associated DLL for the device. I know this DLL is the property page because I've obtained that info from the description of the DLL on the vendors website. My question is, how can I run or view this DLLs property page using VB6? Maybe using rundll32? Thanks for any help. Gary

Thanks for any help. Just to clarify you want to shoe the property page for the *Device* and not the DLL? It just happens to be hosted in the DLL which is largely irrelevant... I don't know the answer, but there should be a method to do this in the Setup API (Deals with device enumeration, etc) -- Dee Earley (dee.earley(a)icode.co.uk) i-Catcher Development Team iCode Systems (Replies direct to my email address will be ignored.
