HELP WHAT SOFTWARE DO I NEED TO LEARN VISUAL BASICS
The Learning Edition is just that. A learning edition. The Professional
Edition will have all the components and etc that MS has for VB6. Virtually
no book with a CD will have either of these in it. It will have code
samples that can be compiled with the retail product. Go to your local
computer store and tell the sales person you want VB6 Learning or
Professional Edition. You'll pay about $100 for Learning and about $495 for
Professional, but you might be able to find them on sale.....
