[snip rest of program]
That is an excellent example to demonstrate the use of VB to load a
program; once you have got that working the next thing you might find
difficult will be either:
1. Doing cleverer things with the VB side, or
2. Doing clever things with the RCX code.
I'll leave others to give you further examples of #1, but there are lots
of examples of #2 on the mindstorms CD. Check out any file of the .scr
type on the CD.

| Bob - Here's a VB program that does what you want. This assumes that Spirit .ocx is named "PbrickCtrl" as in the Mindstorm SDK examples. Substitute my statements in the "getstarted" example.
