It is it a matter of style, but might I make the small suggestion you take
the code in the example and place it in a 'class'.
Then create methods to accomplish specific tasks or services. That way all
the 'ugly' constants, API calls, etc are hidden from view in one convenient
place.
ex:
' to return the full path of your data file
Public Function MyDataFullPath( ByVal sDataFileName As String) As String
' to return the fullpath for a specific user storage
' using a hardcoded data file
Public Function UserDataFullPath()
' fonts
Public Function AllFonts() As String
