Hi,

I could not find any examples for VB and CANopen. You could try to program it by using the Frame api;  a fairly good knowledge of NI CAN and CANopen would be needed to do this.  I know you said you wanted to use VB, however NI does have a CANOpen LabVIEW Library which will work with all High Speed Series 2 cards.  The library does not have support for other languages however, so it will not work with VB 6.
