Purpose: This will add all the items in the history box on the AOL toolbar to a List Box. When the user double clicks one of the items it will be removed from the AOL history box.

Requirements: This code requires a ListBox named lstHistory and a Command Button named cmdOK.

System: Designed with Visual Basic 6.0 to be used with no BAS file on America Online version 4.0 or 5.0
