Sample Delphi Function using nrComm Lib HID solution

[Thomas]

//  myHidIndex:=GetHidDevice(<VendorId>, <ProductId>, <FriendlyName>);
// 
//  Returns -1 if no Hid device active or hid index number if active
//
//  This program uses 1 ListBox (DevListBox), 1 History ListBox (HistoryListBox) for HexStrings
//  and a memo (meResults) for hex to Ascii
