Hi Marty,
have you try to construct any Vba code like the samples ping or ftp??
I try today and i have installed on my computer Net Framework 2 and VB.net
2005, but can't execute... the wrapper dll or anything..??

Thanks

Juan

This might be interesting and is fairly simple

Call Into The .NET Framework From Existing Visual Basic 6.0 Apps
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/06/05/WrapItUp/default.aspx

This article adresses VB6 but there is no reason, it can't be used from VBA
You will need VB Express installed along with .Net Framework 2.0 to create
the wrapper dll. And perhaps register as COM object.

It should save you using a lot of 3'd party controls by using the NET
Framework class library instead. There are a lot of things that can be
quickly written in .Net

The .NET Framework classes must be called through a wrapper. The wrappers
are built using the COM Class item in VB Express,  and they behave like any
other COM objects
