I have started playing with SimConnect.  I have a registered version of FSUIPC but  I like the idea of not having to poll FSX for data.  In SimConnect you can set parameters that trigger FSX to send SimConnect information only if something changes.
 
 
There is not very much data for VB6 and SimConnect.  I have attached a sample program in VB6 with source code that reads and writes to FSX.  In this program I monitor Gear and Flap position, Com1, Nav1, ADF and transponder frequency (read and write)

VB6 SimConnect Example

You will also need this OCX file.  This activeX will allow you to dynamicly implement SimConnect, in any dev langage including Delphi or VB6.

Download : ftp://www.mcdu.com/mcdu/DEV/FSCSCAlpha.zip

Unzip it somewhere, then run REGISTER.BAT , then you are ready to go with FSX SimConnect RTM version.

Most function looks like the real SimConnect. However all the data request and assignation is different.

You must insert the FSCSimConnect activeX to your form in the project.
