Mark,
I noticed your company's Muscle library has functions for Port I/O. My
company has a card we developed that uses port I/O with DOS (no hw
interupts). Would it make sense to use Muscle to control our card from VB?
I seem to recall people saying that the appropriate way to access our
hardware with Windows is through a custom driver that we would have to
develop. Is there a difference between the Muscle DLL and a "Driver"?

Bruce,
If all you need is INP and OUT, then writing a driver is definitely not
necessary. Also, there is a DLL available for download (here on CIS) that
has only the INP and OUT routines.
If you find some of the other 435 routines in Muscle to be of interest,
then using only the Muscle DLL would be appropriate (again, without a
driver).
