    Need VB6

    I have been looking for the complete program of VB6 since it appears I'm missing some files. I've looked on Amazon and attempted to find something on Google with no luck. If Anyone has an idea where to find this so I may complete some programming it would be greatly appreciated.

    What happened to your original (legal) copy? CDs?

    People lose **** they bought decades ago.

    I lost my CD, it's backup, and much of what I owned once.

    Between that and MS refusing to sell legitimate copies unless you drop big bucks on a MSDN subcription and the laughable idea of a company built on stealing IP complaining about theirs being stolen... and how MS is trying to kill it... ehh

    There's another copy on eBay for $65 for VS6 Enterprise, that seems to be the cheapest for the full box with all the booklets and such. If you're not expecting any visits from the BSA, archive.org.


    @reexere, both are just pirated VB6 made into a portable exe.

    I still have my original copies of VB3, VBDos, VB5 and VB6 as well as several others.

    I never had an original copy. This was a program that a fellow colleague developed and he retired. Unfortunately he had already disposed of this original set of disk. My tasking is to make a few changes and get it updated till the new software becomes available.

    OK, found it through your link. I've purchased and should be here next week. Appreciate your help.
    Don't be surprised if I come back here for some assistance. I'm not a VB programmer.
