when you select help-about) from a VB.NET windows form?

Hi,

API Declare
Declare Function ShellAbout Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellAboutA" _

(ByVal hwnd As IntPtr, ByVal szApp As String, ByVal szOtherStuff As String,
_

ByVal hIcon As IntPtr) As Integer



How to use

ShellAbout(Me.Handle, "Test", "This is some other stuff to display",
Me.Icon.Handle)
