How to use this API function in my VB code????? 2

[getimran]

This is a c++ code of an API FUNCTION. Can anybody translate in VB format. Actually I am worried about parameters conversion also about handle. How can i pass handle of application.

note : function is used to retrieve reference/handle to an icon.

Declaration starts here
------------------------

HICON ExtractIcon(
HINSTANCE hInst, // instance handle
LPCTSTR lpszExeFileName, // file name
UINT nIconIndex // icon index
);

Parameters details
------------------
hInst
[in] Handle to the instance of the application calling the function.
lpszExeFileName
[in] Pointer to a null-terminated string specifying the name of an executable file, DLL, or icon file.
nIconIndex
[in] Specifies the zero-based index of the icon to retrieve. For example, if this value is 0, the function returns a handle to the first icon in the specified file.

Public Declare Function ExtractIcon Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ExtractIconA" (ByVal hInst As Long, ByVal lpszExeFileName As String, ByVal nIconIndex As Long) As Long

Besides this how to check multiple attributes of folder/file with FileSystemObject.

if (fso.attributes AND HIDDEN) or (fso.attributes AND volume) ...... will work. Actually its not working.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
