    Hi,
    Do Console-Mode Applications written in VB work under Windows 2000 and Windows NT?

    Depends..

    Depends on the application. Most OLD DOS programs don't work too well because they communicate directly with memory which NT doesn't allow. However, writing a NEW console app won't give you any problems assuming you stay away from using API's that try to directly write to memory.

    I tested the console mode application from the articles section of this site:
    http://www.vb-world.net/articles/console/

    It works fine on windows 2000 professional.
