How to drive an LCD through PC Parallel Port in windows XP using Visual Basic 6

I had tested it on C in windows7 but i think the OS was not allowing me to do that and downloaded the dll file inpout32.dll for doing it on VB 6. I am unable to add this file as reference or component to my project.

I have also pasted this file in c:\windows\system32 and tried to register this file in cmd with REGSVR32 "c:\windows\system32\inpout32.dll"

But i am facing an error "entry point not found", failed to register dll

what should i do at current i want it to be done on Visual Basic 6

Plz help me out anyone!!

you need to unlock the parallel port of the operating system.
Take a look here to find a way to turnaround it
