Winamp question

[Makaveli]

(Visual basic 6)
I read a few posts about winamp, and (unless I missed something) didn't come across any that explained or really gave any useful information on how I could have a bot skip to a specific song, like .play *Song*, and it would skip to a song that matched that.  If anybody could give me a few steps in the right direction or something I would appreciate it

I posted this awhile back. It's in C++, so it needs to be converted, but that shouldn't be too hard.  Also, I know it's crappy code, but You'll Get Over It.

//Winamp.h

//This header controls the easier aspects of winamp, such as
//changing songs, fast forwarding, rewinding, etc.

//to use it, call the function with the string command, which
//is a Null-Terminated string which should match to one of the
//commands I've written.

//ffwd and rwnd are special because they can take an optional
//parameter.  If they are passed "rwnd 4" or "ffwd 5" (any number
//from 1 to 9) it will fast forward 5 seconds that many times.
//4 will fast foward 20 seconds, 9 will go 45, 1 will go 5, etc)
