    Talking How to get VB 6?

    Guys, I got a lot of libraries and code in classic VB 5,6. Now how do I get a copy of VB 6?

    Btw I hate VB.net.

    you can go to places like ebay to get a legit copy but be careful because sometimes the sellers send you a copy of the legit copy

    If I remember correctly, you should get some kind of certificate of autenticity or Genuine Microsoft Software label. Also, you should be able to verify the authenticity of the serial number and if illegal you should make sure to prootect yourself before purchase by getting valid info of the buyer and note their seller rating.

    Or check out these results from NextTag but the price range is about the same.

    If you decide to buy call them to verify that soft has legitimate lisense.
