Hi all
Does VB6 produce an exe stand alone program as the final app ?
If not then what kind of file is produced as the final app done with VB6 ?
Thanks

VB6 can create an exe, dll and active x controls. Stand alone? No not really, your final program, dll, or active x control all rely on the VB Runtime. Shouldn't be a problem though, VB6 has been around long enough I believe the runtime is included in newer OS's.
Why VB6 though? It is a bit outdated.

VB6 runtime is included in Windows 2000 and later. ActiveX controls are .ocx files.
There are usually lots of files that have to go along with an .exe file made with VB6: the VB6 runtime as already mentioned, any .dll or .ocx files it references, possibly resource (.res) files, configuration files, database files, and so on. You need to create an installation package, not just copy files.
