What is VB6 Learning Edition ???

[Lior]

Hi...
I wanna know please, what is the Learning Edition of VB6.
Can it compile projects into EXE files? Can it access all API functions, Can I program the TCP/IP with it?
Sometime ago, I had VB5 Control-Creation Edition, Yuck..., I could just make OCXs.

So, Please give me some details about the VB6 Learning Edition? What DOES it include and what it doesnt.

Thanks.

to my knowledge the learning editon is just that..you can play but you can't save stuff...it is, for lack of a better expression, read only. If you are looking for a cheaper version you need to be a student of an academic school or know someone and then you get the educational discount..ie..you can buy the professional edition for around $160.00 Canadian.

Well... i am currently working on VB5 Professional Edition.
I develop programs for Internet environment, and uses advanced data bases.

Should I switch to VB6 Enterprise Edition?
What are the VB6 Enterprise Edition advantages, that VB5 Professional, doesnt has???

Enterprise has lots of client/server stuff, as well as extra database support. It also comes with some profiling tools for your application.

the learning edition can compile exe's, you cant use winsock, you can use all the API calls

[parksie]

You can use the Winsock API, and if you import one tiny registry file you can use ALL the Enterprise controls.

actually, no you can use the winsock control, i think you mean MSCOMM control which is out of bounds!

[parksie]

Doesn't matter. If anyone wants one I can email them a .reg file to enable EVERY SINGLE VB5 Enterprise control.
