VB6 Enterprise Edition

[Eugenious]

I was wondering if anyone knew how to seperate the HELP topics in the VB6 Enterprise edition. I would like to seperate the HELP topics for VB6 from the Visual C++, Visual Foxpro, ETC. Thank You in Advance

if you mean when searching
then select let say "visual basic documentation"
when you do your search it will only search vb

and vise versa

I assume he didnt obtain the copies legally, and wanted to get the MSDN Libraries, because VS6 doesnt come with help files for indivisual languages like VS5 did.

Well heres a way you can get a free year's subscription to MSDN Library if you record the serial number off the Help...About dialog.

I've gotten my MSDN Library July 2000 edition DVDrom a few weeks back, you can chose either CD(bout 4 CDs) or DVD(1 DVD) for your library format. (if yer in a hurry, you can look at MSDN library free online at msdn.microsoft.com)


For those of you that aren't aware, Microsoft is giving away a one year subscription to MSDN if you're the owner of one of the Visual Studio development tools (VB, Interdev, C++, J++). Just go to http://msdn.microsoft.com, and click on MSDN subscriptions, and then Subscription info. Then click on the FREE MSDN icon. You can specify either CDROM or DVD. Well worth the time it takes to fill out the form.

And just hope that the original owner of the software hasn't also registered ;)

In some cases, several copies have the same number, also if it's the enterprise edition, there can be unlimited lisences, so with least the ent you dont have to worry about that either, my number came from my company that uses an MSDN Enterprise version of VS6, which under the new regulations is legal thru any employee of that company, thus each employee if they wanted to could get a copy of the MSDN library.
