Hi list.  I'm continueing down my path of learning VB and I'm finding things 
not too bad doing the exercises in the book.  As I want to eventually program 
audio games, I came across a tutorial to set up directX and to run through a 
very basic example of creating and playing a sound with parameters.  The 
problem is that this was written in VB 6 and I'm using VBS 2008.  My question 
is, is there enough of a difference in these 2 IDE's and the code to make it 
difficult to follow and run this tutorials code?  I've opened the source code 
to a game there: BTW it's on the BSC games site, and looking through it, after 
upgrading it through the wizard in VBS 2008, it's quite a bit different from 
the code in the tutorial!  Is the approach in making audio like this in VBS 
2008 totally different to previous versions?  Sorry if this has been a basic no 
brainer question, but I'm trying to figure out at what level and from where I 
can gain the correct information to achieve what I want to achieve using VBS 
2008.  Many thanks Steve.
