i do not know import DLL file to VB

importing a DLL into VB is a very stright forward task as in :
Declaring the function within the DLL to be called in VB

Declare Function GetPixel Lib "gdi32" (ByVal HDC As Long, ByVal X As Long, ByVal Y As Long) As Long

then subsequently you can call the function with the corresponding parameters as in the declaration above. Note that in this code we are calling GetPixel function that is implemented within gdi32.dll .

You can found additional information in MSDN installation (I presume you've already installed it) and at https://www.flipcode.com/articles/article_vbdlls.shtml
