Communicating with other applications
Starting VTel from other applications
VTel is designed to be started from other applications under Microsoft Windows, Windows
95, Microsoft NT, or OS/2. For example, the following could be used for a Visual Basic
application:
x = Shell("VTel",6)
Because the Shell function is asynchronous, the application starting VTel must wait a
short interval and verify that VTel is successfully started before attempting to communicate
with VTel. The method depends on the communication medium selected.
For more information on using VTel as an OLE automation server, see
