    Output to and Input from printer port

    Greetings!
    Is there a way to send data to and read it directly from the parallel
    printer port using VB6? We did this years ago on a 8088 using assembly
    language. I need to be able to set each bit high or low and also read in if
    switches on the parallel printer port are open or closed.

    Thanks for any help or advice.
    Don Woods
