    Resolved [RESOLVED] API Guide from Allapi.net

    hi all,

    1) it reads that it "requires the VB5 runtimes". i have VB 6 installed (without any SP) on Win 98. so can i use it?

    2) it also specified one API Viewer. is it safe to use? is anyone using it?

    I have been using it for at least 3 years. Its a valuable reference tool but I use the API VIewer more as I mostly need the API definitions and not the examples too often. The API Guide is good as an off-line version of the allapi website. Never tried it on 98 as its too old of an os for me. It should run fine for you though.

    It should work with VB6 runtimes as I dont have VB5.

    Yes, I am using the very same API Viewer from their site. It is updated to be able to format the APIs for .NET code as well. August 8 2004 database update is the latest. Be sure to download the db update.
