Greetings,

I need to create an application that communicates with HID (not a keyboard
or a mouse) and I'm having a heck of a time trying to find *working*
examples of USB/HID code that will compile successfully (and run) under
VS2008. I've located some examples, but they're C#, VB6, VS6 and so forth.
I've obtained the WDK (2 different versions) and have been able to build an
app under VS6. The problems are that the MS header files won't compile.

Does anyone have any hands-on experience with VS2008 and USB / HID coding?
Any insight or suggestions are appreciated.....

Thanks in advance!
jim
