Generally it works like this: You get the Universal Library from MC for VEE and use that. There are a couple other options, but they're pretty intense.
At least, you need details of how the boards work.
It's curious that there are no drivers though. It would probably be cheaper to buy new hardware than jump through all the software hoops you'd need to without them.
There are usually three layers: a Windows driver, a library that usually (in the auld lang syne) manifests as a C dll, an optionally some higher level library like ActiveX or .NET. The driver and primary library are pretty much a must for any success (VEE or otherwise).

I have Vee Pro 7.01 and have inherited a fairly complex program involving
input and output data both analog and digital through two I/O Boards made
by Measurement Computing. There are only two analog inputs on a single
board and since I have three analog needs I have two boards that are
connected together and synchronized together using a multiwired connector
that connects the boards.
When there are no drivers for these I/O boards is it possible to generate
a program in Vee Pro to instruct these boards to go to get data and to
retrieve it without having a special driver from the manufacture? Is there
anyone out there that could aid in this effort, having gone through this
previously.
Thanking you in advance. Also, I'm living on the West coast about an hour
and one half from Seattle, so it might be helpful if the responders were
living in the area as we could possibly communicate via phone as well.
Please forward your response to DavidG@AeraEnergy.org
