======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft eMbedded Visual Basic, version 3.0 
 - Microsoft eMbedded Visual C++, Version:4.0 version 3.0

SUMMARY
=======

The Vbvoice.exe sample is package that includes sample code to build a dynamic
link library (DLL) to use the Voice Control on Pocket PC from an eMbedded Visual
Basic application.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The source code to the sample DLL includes code to use the Voice Control in a
modeless manner without automatically closing the Control when it loses window
focus. The sample DLL subclasses the control to handle the WM_ACTIVATE message
so that it can remain on an eMbedded Visual Basic form while the user continues
to use the rest of the application.

Included with the sample DLL (Vbvoice.dll) is an eMbedded Visual Basic
application to demonstrate its use. The application calls functions in the DLL
which, in turn, creates and uses the Voice Control on the Pocket PC.
