I purchased and still have the original disks (2) of what the label says:

Microsoft Visual Basic Standard Edition
Programming System for MS-DOS

Disk 1 - Setup
MS-DOS Series
Disk Format: High-density(1.44.MB)  
Version 1.0

-- Also Disk 2

The file date is 08/19/92 11:59 p.m.

I even installed it a couple of weeks ago to see if it still "worked" -- it
did!

This is the Packing List:

                           Disk Contents for
              Microsoft (R) Visual Basic (TM) for MS-DOS (R)
                       Standard Edition Version 1.00

This file contains a complete list of all files and directories on the
distribution disks provided with this product. Files are grouped by
product component, numbers in parentheses indicate the disk number on which
the file is found.

==============================================================================
Files on the distribution disks are compressed (indicated by a "$" in the
file extension) and must be decompressed before they are used. The Setup
program on disk 1 decompresses files as they are installed. A separate file
decompression utility (DECOMP.EXE) located on disk 1 is provided for manual
file decompression. The following table displays the compressed/uncompressed
file extension mapping scheme:

    Compressed File Extension:        Uncompressed File Extension:
            *.AS$               -             *.ASM
            *.BA$               -             *.BAS
            *.BI$               -             *.BI
            *.BT$               -             *.BAT
            *.C$                -             *.C
            *.CO$               -             *.COM
            *.CT$               -             *.CTX
            *.DL$               -             *.DLL
            *.EX$               -             *.EXE
            *.FO$               -             *.FON
            *.FR$               -             *.FRM
            *.H$                -             *.H
            *.HL$               -             *.HLP
            *.IC$               -             *.ICO
            *.IN$               -             *.INC
            *.LI$               -             *.LIB
            *.MA$               -             *.MAK
            *.MD$               -             *.MDB
            *.OB$               -             *.OBJ
            *.PI$               -             *.PIF
            *.QL$               -             *.QLB
            *.SC$               -             *.SCN
            *.SO$               -             *.SOB
            *.SY$               -             *.SYS
            *.TX$               -             *.TXT
            *.XL$               -             *.XLM

An example of using DECOMP.EXE to decompress a single file is as follows:

C:\> DECOMP A:BC.EX$ C:\VBDOS\BC.EXE

This will decompress the BC.EX$ file from the distribution disk in drive a:
to the file BC.EXE in the C:\VBDOS directory.
