Looking for some VB.NET samples for lookup calls

Hi,

Ive settled on a Microsoft solution and the EveAI implemention.

I have a third of the basics down. I was wondering if someone could give me some samples. My main issue I'm working on at this very moment has to do with starbases. For example, I can get all of the information that is documented in the respective api calls for getting the starbase info. What is not contained in that package is the container name of the tower.

I believe I would need to grab an ID belonging to a tower and so some kind of lookup to obtain the tower name etc. However, I can't figure out how to do something like that.

The fact the container name isn't in the starbase details leads me to suspect maybe I'm missing something simple.

I suspect it's not possible. The Asset XML API, even though it shows an item is a singleton, doesn't expose its assigned name.

got a lot of things about the starbase towers sorted out. What I don't know now is how to convert a moonID to a moon name using ezlib .
