VB6 - Memory Hacking.

[variable]

Erm... I am facing a problem... The WriteProcessMemory Function is working properly but I am having problems with the ReadProcessMemory Function. It has an argument which needs a process, an address, The Buffer (my problem), size and bytes written.
Well, the problem is that the buffer is supposed to return the value stored in the given address. But problem with that is that I don't know the value of the buffer! (how am I supposed to anyway)
Can someone tell me what I can do about this?

[variable]

Chill... Figured out my problem!
If anyone else out there were facing that problem then look no further!
I have found the solution! Again

So, how to get the memory value?
Declare a variable something called buffer. Declare it as Long
Now in the ReadProcessMemory type this
ReadProcessMemory ProcessHere, AddressHere, buffer, 4, *I don't remember*

Now add long to ReadALong
i.e Public Function ReadALong(TheGame As String, TheAddress As Long, TheValue As Long) As Long '<= See the new Long

Now we just set ReadALong the value we found in the buffer variable
So, ReadAlong = buffer

That's it!
