CryptoUtils.DLL - functions 'EncryptFileUsingSymmetricKey' and 'DecryptFileUsingSymmetricKey' - cryptography

Has anyone used CryptoUtils.DLL? Is there any documentation available for the same and can someone point me to it?
I am interested in using the functions EncryptFileUsingSymmetricKey and DecryptFileUsingSymmetricKey. I had opened this DLL in IDA Pro Free and have observed that both of these functions use 7 parameters. I would really appreciate if someone can help me with the same.

Need some explanation about interface in LibreOffice basic

I need to program something in LibreOffice Basic, but I've never done that before. I just have the basis in python, so it's really new for me.
I didn't find any recent documentation, so I'm reading the basic guide from 2010.
But there is a point I really don't understand, They speak about various interface but I don't succeed to understand their interest and when I should call it.
If you can explain it I would love it.
Thank you !
Don't go deeper, no need. To write working code in Basic, you do not need additional information - you just need to know the list of methods of each object, no more. Which interface provided this method to the object shouldn't bother you.
See chapter 3.6.4. Interfaces in Pitonyak's book. The list of available methods is easy to obtain using the MRI or Xray tool extension. MRI is convenient in that after an in-depth study of the object, you immediately get a piece of code ready for use.
(Unfortunately, this extension works extremely unstable with the latest versions of LibreOffice)
Update Video on YouTube
Python is very good when working with LibreOffice. See http://christopher5106.github.io/office/2015/12/06/openoffice-libreoffice-automate-your-office-tasks-with-python-macros.html.
You'll still need MRI or XrayTool and Pitonyak's book as explained by #JohnSUN. Also you'll want APSO and a reference such as https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Python/Transfer_from_Basic_to_Python.
For a single small project though, Basic may be better as there are more examples available.

wacom stu-300 , wintab32.dll? Where, how do I start? Cant find wintab32...? VB.NET

I purchased two Wacom stu-300 signature tabs. I had the ooption of buying the significant SDK/software, but I wanted to interact witht he pads myself. From research I see that I basically need access to wintab32.dll. I cant't find it anywhere? Can someone point me in the right direction?
I am looking to just capture a basic signature. No fancy graphics. Just cap signature. I have tried a few sample apps, but most of them complain about wintab being missing. Wacom seems to explicitly declare that the stu-300 is to be used as part of a compelte solution, and they don;t provide any driver or software for it. The signature pad is installed tho, and shows in devices. Does this tab work / fall into the caterogy of a "tablet" pc functionality?
I would really appreciate some help, maybe a sample app? I would prefer vb.net.
Thanks
It was last maintained by Wacom. The DLL is hidden inside their driver installs. I found it as part of the PenTablet driver version 5.2.5-5a, available at http://www.wacom.com/en/customercare/Drivers.aspx?model=Bamboo&os=
Rather than installing the entire driver, you can extract wintab32.dll from the self-extracting installer.
The stu-300 does not have wintab, Wacom has a set of SDK for the stu tablets, you can request it from https://ssl.wacom.eu/signature.wacom.eu/index.php?page_id=18

Atomineer Utils VB.NET XML Comment Documentation Not Working

I just downloaded the trial for this application and it doesn't seem to work. I went through the Quick Setup guide and it all looked great. Now when I place my cursor on a member of any type and press Ctrl+Shift+D it does nothing. I placed it on top, inside, etc... Nothing. If I press Ctrl+Shift+A (twice) on top of the member it tells me to place it "in the line of the form MyType myVariable;". I'm not quite sure what this means unless it's referring to C# but this project is VB.NET which it doesn't seem to recognize. Anyone else have this issue? I was hoping it would make things easier since I've read that it can document an entire document rather than having to member by member.
Using VS 2010 Premium.
Drop me an email to support (at) atomineerutils.com with a bit of example code that exhibits the problem, and I'll help you sort it out.
(edit)
Please note that AtomineerUtils only officially supports VB 9 onwards, although where the syntax of earlier versions is compatible (i.e. in most cases), it will still work perfectly well.
I've now investigated this, and I can't repeat the documentation behaviour you have mentioned - it works as expected for me. (However, I did find and fix a regression introduced to the Visual Basic handling in a recent version - a small coding glitch that meant some methods could be incorrectly documented as constructors, so thanks for indirectly helping me find this issue!)
All I can suggest is that if you see a problem in any application, the best (and often only) way to get it fixed is to let the author know!

Gaming/Animation Tutorials for c++ and Windows Forms!

I'm having trouble finding some gaming/animation tutorial for c++ and windows form.
I've been told (online) by many people to use gamedev.net, which i did, but unfortunately i could not find the information that i need :(
Does anyone know of any good tutorials for either a simple games (like snake or pong) or of simple animation in Windows Forms using C++ ( not C# )? If so, please let me know!
Looking forward to a reply,
Thanks!
You can use Allegro in C++ or mixed C++\CLI.

How to accept weight data from Detecto AS-350D

I've found a scale, Detecto AS-350D (http://cardinal-detecto.centralcarolinascale.com/AS-PC-Computer.htm), that hooks up to a computer. I was hoping someone could help me figure out how to get the information (weight) from it. I've looked around but can't seem to find any information on it. I've never wrote a program where I accepted data from a device likes this so kind of confused where to look. Thanks.
Update: I'm coding in VB, and the device connects to the computer via serial port.
I developed a serial port programming language in C#. maybe you want to try it. It also has a built-in debugger and it requires .NET Framework 3.5 or above. you do NOT have to install any other programming tools. It is freely available on sourceforge.
If you create a driver simply with the following state, you will be able to get the data from the serial port.
state Init
recv();
end state
