Installing VB6
-
I am running VB6 on a Windows 10 64-bit computer without any problems. We have even installed VB6 on a Windows 11 computer, also without problems. I have coded in VB6 since 2000 and still do. Have worked on over 3000 programs and have been able to get VB6 to work in automated environments without any problems. I use a wibsite that shows how to install on Windows 10 - How To Install Visual Basic 6 (VB6) in Windows 10[^]

Fixed that for you. You actually sound quite proud that you are still coding in an obsolete language that is no longer supported, that has to be run on an artificial platform within a platform, and cannot utilise modern architectures and tools. Not sure that I would want that noted on my CV :laugh:

I say yes that VB6 is old. I completely understand why anyone would want to perpetuate it. There is a big huge learning process to move to a completely different language. Most programmers have huge numbers of applications currently in use that need maintenance. There is not much that “can’t be done “ with VB6 Finally, I have a mantra that I have very painfully learned years ago: “IF IT AINT BROKE, DONT FIX IT”
