    If I buy VB.NET , can I still have VB 6 ? [Resolved]

    Hi all:

    I currently have VB 6.0 installed on my computer. They're selling a Microsoft Visual Basic .NET upgrage at Best Buy... if I buy this and install it, will I still have access to VB 6? Can both be installed at the same time?

    Thanks,

    - Allen

    Remember you have to have XP or 2000 or NT 4 to use the .Net IDE. I don't think it runs on ME, 98 or 95

    I have XP.... Programs created with .NET will run on 95/98/ME (as long as the .NET Framework is installed), correct?

    They won't run on 95, because there is no framework for it. They will run on 98 and up though.
