I'm not really sure why I'm bothering to start this thread - I think it because I've always wondered what people are doing with VB out there.
So, the gist is, what's is the largest program you've written in VB? Time to talk tech - spit out some line counts, numbor of forms, mods, classes etc, and anything else remotely interesting (like what the project was)
Ok, so it's a pointless excercise, but i'm interested to see what everybody else is actually using VB for.
I'll start to get you all in the mood....
Biggest project I've written (well, it was written by a group of four of us) was about 450,000 lines of VB code spread of a 38 project group for the client and a 17 project group of the server. Ran on 486's, and the main client EXE was ~700K.
It also took close to eighteen months to develop (it was an insurance company system). Dog of a job, but in the process we developed some pretty nice generic code that we've reused pretty much everywhere since.
