 SetUEvent
 
 Usage Notes
   ■ The SetUEvent routine does not affect form- or control-specific events.
     Forms and controls use different event handlers. Use object-specific
     events with forms. See: ◄Object Events Summary►
 
   ■ SetUEvent signals an event for the ON UEVENT event-handling routine.
 
   ■ The SetUEvent routine is a part of Basic, and is automatically included
     in compiled applications or when starting Visual Basic (VBDOS) with the
     /L command-line option. See: ◄VBDOS Command-Line Options►
 
   ■ Your interrupt-service routine must call SetUEvent; it is the only way
     to alert your program that the event has occurred.
 
   ■ You can call SetUEvent from a non-Basic language.
 
   ■ To use SetUEvent in the Visual Basic programming environment, use any
     Quick library. However, you do not have to link to a library to use
     SetUEvent outside the programming environment.
