How to get started with composer API

Hello,

I am trying to build a program that will automate many of my composer tasks. I am trying to get the Solidworks provided example code to run so that I can start to build my application off of the sample code. the sample I am using is located in the Solidworks composer install directory: \Samples\API and is the visual studio solution named COmposerClientVB.when I open the solution the project has two unresolved references. I can delete and re-add the My Project.Resources.Designer.vb as I found it in the project files but I cannot find or locate the com object DS3DVIAComposer. Does anybody know what file this resource should be pointed to? 

Any info on examples or experience with the composer API would be greatly appreciated!
