I really should have responded to your original message before posting my
message about LDView's parser. As far as I'm concerned, having a public VB
parser for LDraw files would be great. I won't use it, but if others find it
useful, that's all that really matters. And LDView's parser won't help VB users
at all. (I could turn it into a DLL, but turning it into a VB-compatible DLL
would just be too much work.)
Having said all that, you might keep in mind that just because you create it
doesn't necessarily mean that other people are going to use it. This community
is made up of hobbyists, and for many of us, implementing the parser itself is
interesting and part of the fun of the hobby. So if you don't have an app in
mind that you want to write that would use your DLL, you might want to wait for
more concrete requests.
Sorry for the confusion.
