Another thought.  Since POV files are just plain text files, you could write
your own editor.  save the file then load and render in POV, or call POV
(ShellExecute()) with the proper command line switches.  True this is not
what you (or I) would really want, but if your just learning VB then that
might be the best route.

DC :)

p.s.  I've worked with VB for a long time and I've just changed over to
Borlands C++ Builder.  If you are just learning programming, you might look
into that.  BCB is based on the Delphi VCL (Visual Component Library) and
has done to C++ windows programming what VB did for BASIC windows
programming.

p.s.s.  I've been playing with the idea of porting POV to BCB and made the
UI in about 2~3 hours.  I'm looking for the POV source code to see how to
merge the two.  Any thoughts about new UI options would be appreciated.
