Dim success As Long

' Detects connected smart cards and USB tokens

' Works on Windows, MacOS, iOS, and Linux.
' Note: If something is not detected, contact info@chilkatsoft.com
' for help or for workarounds.
Dim argNotUsed As String

    Debug.Print certStore.LastErrorText
    Exit Sub
End If

Dim cert As New ChilkatCert

Dim numCerts As Long
numCerts = certStore.NumCertificates
Dim i As Long
