MSDN Online (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp) can help you find the answers to these kinds of things: ReadProcessMemory (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/debug/base/readprocessmemory.asp).
can i get a example of how to use this i really dont get it and would really appreciate it

I'll show you HOW to get an example of this.... I do this about 5 times a day:
Start here: http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en (http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en)
In "All Words" put ReadProcessMemory
In "Exact Phrase" put "Visual Basic" and click Search.
Go through the results one-by-one until something looks good. Here's one:

thanks alot my methods for searching are shit compared to yours !
i get error 242 and object required everytime i compile :-S
this is my code
Private Sub Command3_Click()
ReadProcessMemory Game.exe, &H4312B25, B, Len(B), lBytesRead
End Sub
You need to get a HANDLE to the process, such as with OpenProcess. GetWindowThreadProcessId and FindWindow might be useful to get a process id (unless you are using CreateProcess to start the program yourself).

Hmm, he didn't even look at the example:
Dim hwnd As Long
Dim pid As Long
Dim pHandle As Long
Dim lBytesRead As Long
Const PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS = &H1F0FFF
Dim B As Long
hwnd = FindWindow(vbNullString, "legend of mir2")
If (hwnd = 0) Then
MsgBox "Window not found!"
Exit Sub
End If
GetWindowThreadProcessId hwnd, pid
pHandle = OpenProcess(PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS, False, pid)
If (pHandle = 0) Then
MsgBox "Couldn't get a process handle!"
Exit Sub
End If
ReadProcessMemory pHandle, CLng("&02501BD3"), B, Len(B), lBytesRead
Label2.Caption = B
CloseHandle hProcess
no its just i thought the handle was game.exe
