Dim email As New Chilkat.Email

' ...

Dim explanation As String = "..."
Dim statusFieldsXml As String = "..."
Dim headerOnly As Boolean = False

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' The CreateDsn method is deprecated:

Dim emailObj As Chilkat.Email = email.CreateDsn(explanation,statusFieldsXml,headerOnly)
If (email.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(email.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Do the equivalent using ToDsn.
' Your application creates a new, empty Email object which is passed 
' in the last argument and filled upon success.

Dim dsnEmail As New Chilkat.Email
Dim success As Boolean = email.ToDsn(explanation,statusFieldsXml,headerOnly,dsnEmail)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(email.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If
