Need help with a project.new to VB 6

Hello,
I am working on a project where I have to build an ATE to test 2 units at a time. I am working on the software portion to communicate with an oscilloscope DSO7054B from Agilent. I am unsure of where to begin. Can anyone suggest what I must do? I need to send signals to the scope and display the signals on the scope and read Peak to Peak voltage for the waveforms sent.

Please advise.
Thanks
Alex
