Is it possible to create a VB function with multiple outputs. Note: I am not looking for an array containing me three outputs or a variable using delimitters

Sure, pass your parameters to the function by reference (byref) you can then modify them in the body of the function.

If you're running .NET4 then you could use one of the new Tuple types (eg, Tuple(Of T1, T2)):
Public Function ReturnTwoValues() As Tuple(Of String, Integer)
Return Tuple.Create("Test", 42)
End Function

C# has the out keyword:
void TestFunc(int x, ref int y, out int z) {
x++;
y++;
z = 5;
}
VB has no equivalent as explicit. You can only pass values using ByRef:
Sub TestFunc(ByVal x As Integer, ByRef y As Integer, ByRef z As Integer)
x += 1
y += 1
z = 5
End Sub
