Matt,

Yes, but have had a lot of trouble.  I remember seeing a emulator that is
specifically for VB applications.  Can't remember what it was called but it
shouldn't be too hard to find again.  Since the CBA software and their
accounting system is written in VB it might be better to go that way.

I agree.  Then we can slowly move them away from the MS stuff all together.
