Re: Do I have sufficient resources to install VB6 on Windows 10?

1 Visual Basic 6.0 Professional Edition
2 msdn Library - Visual Studio 6.0
3 Visual Studio 6.0 - Service Pack 5
Is this sufficient?
What version (year and month) of ' msdn Library - Visual Studio 6.0' do you have ?
Is it a pack of 3 (I think) CDs ? OR the single DVD that some of us managed to get ?
If it is too old then you miss out on some 'Help' stuff (MS released VB6 before they fully completed things, particularly the Help)
Thus they quietly allowed us (Purchasers of VB6) to get a free years subscription to MSDN in the form of packs of CDs or single DVDs
If it is too new then you get flooded with a lot of VB.NET crap
