Joystick feedback?

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/Joystick feedback?

I know hot to create userlibs and access dll's (that i wrote) and windows api, i just don't know enough about windows/directx api. I have seen C++ examples in the DX9 SDK but im not a c++ coder and realy don't know how to do this in purebasic.
Why would you need to use PureBASIC?
