I would like to build an application that utilizes Visual Basic for
the GUI with Visual C++ business objects. Is it possible to "easily"
build an application that is a mixture both?  I know it is possible to
call "C" functions from VB, but is it possible to "call-back" to VB
code?  We are considering this because some people "feel" that VB
GUI's are easier to develop. Does the complexity of a mixed
environment outweighs the benefits?  Are there pitfalls to be avoided?

Please respond via e-mail.

Thanks,


-Steve
