Been distributing an app since 2007 that is distributed on a USB thumb drive and can be run right from the thumb drive (although we do recommend doing a drag drop to the local hard drive). Our requirements are win 2K or better and IE 5 or better. Looks like you and I are part of the same subversive cell. Rdub

KBasic is source compatible with VB5/6, but if you have forms, you have to redesign them around the GUI used by KBasic, which is called Qt. Unlike VB5/6, it can produce EXE's without any dependency on external files except what came with the OS. It's multi-platform, and the EXE runs on Linux/Mac/Windows. http://www.kbasic.com/

I want to like it. I want a multiplatform alternative to VB, but unfortunately it doesn't seem like KB is it. For one it doesn't seem the least bit intuitive. Also, when I opened various VB projects in KB it didn't seem to recognize them. |
