Actually, this is more of what I wanted: The user can move the camera
around my object in a circle but it always views in the same direction. I
want the camera to always be facing the object which happens to be at the
origin. The radius of the circle is 750.
This is the code for the camera movement:
Zangle=Zangle+.1
Rb3DSpace1.Camera.Position.X=Rb3DSpace1.Camera.Position.X//this line
is not strictly necessary buy I keep it here for consistency
Rb3DSpace1.Camera.Position.Y=(750*(Sin(Zangle)))
Rb3DSpace1.Camera.Position.Z=(750*(Cos(Zangle)))
After that I want the camera to point towards the origin.
>> I don't understand how to make the camera in the RB3dSpace look at the
>> Origin (0,0,0). Is there a simple way to do this?

> RB3DSpace1.camera.position.z = 700 // back up so we can see the origin
