NI488.2 Complete Guide

Hi All
(using C#)
Where can i find a complete resource with all the functions in the "NationalInstruments.NI4882" Namespace.The CD
that we got with our GPIB-USB does not include this info.On the help documentation of this CD I found this "receive" function:
void Receive (int boardID, Addr4882_t address, void *buffer, long count, int termination).
"int boardID" - does this also refer to the GPIB-USB,if it does where do I get or set the "boardID"?
And is there a resource for C# and VB.Net,because all I see is C and VB resources.
Thanx for your time.

The .NET help is fully integrated into the Visual Studio .NET documentation. To view the NI-488.2.NET documentation, go to Start»Programs»Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003»Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 Documentation. Under Contents, expand NI Measurement Studio Help»NI Measurement Studio .NET Class Library»Reference»NationalInstruments.NI4882 to view the function reference. Expand NI Measurement Studio Help»NI Measurement Studio .NET Class Library»Using the Measurement Studio .NET Class Libraries to view conceptual topics for using NI-488.2 with Visual C# and Visual Basic .NET.

To get to the same help topics from within Visual Studio .NET 2003, go to Help»Contents. Select Measurement Studio from the Filtered By drop-down list and follow the previous instructions.

For Visual C# and Visual Basic .NET examples, go to the ..\National Instruments\MeasurementStudioVS2003\DotNET\Examples\GPIB subdirectory. This directory and the examples are added when you select the .NET Framework 1.1 Languages Support feature in the NI-488.2 Installer.
