Question Connecting non-joystick control components

How do we do this? Specifically, the device I wish to connect is a USB device- a Belkin n52te gamepad.



Now, it's a USB device, so connecting it physically to the computer isn't a problem. My question- how do we alter the /program/ to take its data? In other words, how do I interface the robot with it as if it were a device like the stop button or joystick? What action do I have to take in the robot code?

If this is a question that belongs in the programming subforum, please let me know.
