But it's a great topic.
HOO-RAY!
Maybe some people will read this before they post. I don't think it'll keep them ALL organized...but it'll cut down on some of the wrong posting...I hope.
There are far too many changes to mention here. But I'll add another one:
VB.NET: Control events usually have two parameters, the first one being an instance of the Object Class and the second one being a derived class of EventArgs. They are also followed by Handles <event>
Eg.
vb
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
VB6: Control Events either have no parameters or parameters of basic data types such as Integer, String etc.
vb
Private Sub Form_Activate()
End Sub
Private Sub Form_DblClick()
End Sub
Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Load()
End Sub
Private Sub Form_QueryUnload(Cancel As Integer, UnloadMode As Integer)
For a Rookie this was very helpful, because with out it, I may have been one of the people posting in the wrong place. Until now I had never really seen any VB6 code, or understood if it was really different.
It'd be cool if first-time posters in the VB section had to read this before posting. Would probably save the moderators a lot of time.
gud day...im jerwin 18yrs old,2nd year bsit...i just need some help from you...can u help me of making basic calculator using vb6? please...what codes will i use to the numbers 0-9, the +,-,*,/ and =...etc....hoping you can help me.tnks.
Oh, so the programs you make in, for example, visual basic 2008 can only be used in Windows? Because the codes you have written are the "defaults" in it.
VB6 or VB.Net? I am using VB for about 10 years... tested VB.Net 2003,2005,2008 and 2010 (beta)... I think one of the FULL BUG program is Visual Studio .Net . Of course VS2008 is one of the bests but because of those bugs I prefer VB6...

I'm not understanding what you're saying. What bugs are you referring to? And if you've truly been using VB for 10 years you would know just how powerful VB (not VB.NET) is not. VB6 (and older) were good for rapid deployment, and for new programmers to cut their teeth with, but it really never had a place with the real programming languages simply because of it's lack of functionality and power
vb6 is easier to understand and use by a factor of 4 compared to VB.NET but i muset agree, VB.NET had much better and more features than VB6
yup vb .net is better but it is true only wen i need to use its all features.i want to know wen i m going to design a simple interface then y i should choose vb .net y nt vb6 wen it is simple to use and understand.pls reply if u hv proper ans, y to go wid vb6 while designing a simple interface.
