    choosing the right vb!

    hi

    my problem is that at college they have visual basic 6 professional but i have vb6 working model edition at home.

    ive tried opening the files in my version but they dont work.

    do i have to get another version or is there a way to get round this.

    would vb.net standard 2003 allow me to open and play the files?

    please help

    cheers.

    No you cannot open VB6 project files in VB.net.

    You should find a Version of Visual Basic 6 Professional or Standard(?)
    Tips:
    • Google is your friend! Search before posting!
    • Name your thread appropriately... "I Need Help" doesn't cut it!
    • Always post your code!!!! We can't read your mind!!! (well, at least most of us!)
    • Allways Include the Name and Line of the Exception (if one is occuring!)
    • If it is relevant state the version of Visual Studio/.Net Framwork you are using (2002/2003/2005)

    hi

    is MS Visual Studio Professional Edition - ( v. 6.0 ) the same as visual basic 6 professional?

    or would they be compatible with each other?

    cheers for the help

    They are one and the same. VS professional 6.0 just includes VB6.0 professional along with VS C++ Professional, some data languages, and such.
