The information in this article applies to:

SUMMARY
=======

Vbinet.exe is a sample that demonstrates how to declare many of the WinInet
functions in Visual Basic. You should be able to use the included declaration
file for most of your Visual Basic applications that use the WinInet functions.

The included file Wininet.bas contains declarations for a number of WinInet
functions and constants that Visual Basic programmers can use from their
applications. This is not an exhaustive list of declarations for WinInet
functions but it does cover the most commonly used functions and almost all of
the constant definitions.

Some common Win32 function declarations are also included in this file.

The Wininet.bas file needs to be included in another Visual Basic project. It can
not be used as a Visual Basic project alone.
