How do I check if VXI resource manager has been run

[kb8tl]

Using VB professional and ComponentWorks I need to know if the NI resource manager for a VXI 1394 interface has been successfully run.

You can find out if resman has already been run by calling "GetDevInfoLong" with the LA argument of 0x0 and the field value of 0x8110. If resman has already been run, then it will return 0x0. If resman has NOT run, then it will return 0x80000800.

OK, thanks. So, where might I find this function and maybe some example coding in VB6? The Windows API does not contain it...
