One other thing about VB 6 you can get CD via downgrading.<br>
<br>
Microsoft is offering licenses of Visual Basic 6.0 to owners of Visual Studio.NET
through a process known as "downgrading". If you obtain a license for the
current version (Visual Studio.NET), you can then order the media for the
desired previous version (Visual Basic 6.0). Please consult your Microsoft
end user licensing agreement (EULA) for more details. To order the Visual
Basic 6.0 media in the United States, please obtain the appropriate Visual
Studio.NET license, and then contact the Microsoft Supplemental Parts Order
Desk at (800) 360-7561. For orders outside the U.S., please contact your
Microsoft reseller. You may be asked to supply proof of purchase of your
Visual Studio.NET license to obtain the Visual Basic 6.0 media.<br>

<pre wrap="">Sorry that should have read our VB list is very slow (VB is fine for ActiveX components). If you are looking into VB you can use VB 6 and the syntax is about identical to VBA for the most part. The Learning Edition of VB which is less expensive may do the trick for you.

Slow? Would you recommend looking for alternatives to VB?

<blockquote type="cite">
<pre wrap=""> I'd be happy to help you though as I use VB to create DLLs quite
often. In a nutshell, if you're comfortable writing classes you
already know enough to put a DLL together.

Thanks. Just wanted to stay off possible traps when dealing with dlls.

Having never done so (I'm an Access guy) could some of you VB gurus
please point me into the right direction (I'm lazy too) regarding the
best (preferably cheap) tool capable of this - and perhaps a link to
an on-line crash course?
