Re: Visual Basic 3

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I just located and purchased an unopened and unregistered VB6 professional,
still remaining behind in technology. When the software arrives, I will
recreate the two VB3 forms and objects in my new VB6 environment, retype my
VB3 code text into the two VB6 forms and controls(have paper copy of my
original code), test, then make a new *.exe. VB3 has a *.mak file and VB6
evidently does not.

Rather than attempt to hunt down a replacement disk or find and download a
replacement program, purchasing VB6 was the easiest solution.

Thanks for the help.
