VB6, C++ or Both ?
in [Visual Basic]

From: senn on 15 Jul 2008 18:20 Good evening, Been looking on eBay to day for a VB6 copy to substitute VB5. "Microsoft Visual Basic C++ FoxPro Studio Enterprise 6" Does this package contain a full VB6 language ?. -If not bungled !. To me, the name rather points to C++ And moreover, as though it contains both VB6 and C++ ?. /senn

My gut says, "yes." Visual Studio 6 Enterprise Edition contained "all of the above." http://www.recycledsoftware.com/servlet/the-499/MICROSOFT-VISUAL-STUDIO-6/Detail That said, my gut hasn't seen the exact offer you're refering to, so who knows? -- ..NET: It's About Trust! http://vfred.mvps.org

I'll have to stick to ebay -now I am there. http://global.ebay.com/gbh/search?browse=0&Query=visual+basic+C%2B%2B+enterprise&SortBy=11&PageNumber=1&SiteIdFilterType=3&ItemTypeFilter=2&ipp=25 The dealer shows up to be the same one you're pointing to above. I se, I'll have to slip quite a bit more when going through ebay - $703 Got a problem with vb5. Installed xNumber.dll HPA (High Precision Aritmetric). VB5 won't cope with some of the functions in this ActiveX. Apparently vb5 needs functions as Split, Replace and more. This ActiveX from the Foxes Team, a very fine software piece of HPA, and easy to install and use. And a fine pdf to it. Thanks, /senn

There are VB5 code modules that offer the functional equivalent. I include one, myself, with this download: http://vb.mvps.org/samples/DirDrill -- ..NET: It's About Trust! http://vfred.mvps.org

Over the period of time since this came out, there have been various Service Packs for VB6 - the latest one is SP6. Seems a bit pricier than when I bought mine for some reason though. Billl |
