Yeah I downgraded to .NET 2003. Hope that is more like VB6 without those annoyingly long odd function names, ugh.

Well, I have not, I'm new to VS2010. Just started a new form project, and tried to use some code. :doh: How do I start that wizard?

I cant find it for import in VB.NET2010 In references somehow? Am I missing files? :confused:

Look for yourself! QuickBASIC Stuff[^] (almost) All software is written by me. I started in 2012, and ended my QBASIC programming last year. From there I used VB6 to create the SniperOS complication software for XP, NT4 and 2K. RetroHeaven Index[^] is my main site especially for Internet Explorer 6. a>[QuinSoft] is my main site. So yeah, less and less people understand my knowledge, I know that. Makes me feel so special ;) "An unsupported 32 bit person in a 64 bit environment." - Eddy Vluggen All I can say is one thing. WoW! (Who understands the pin?) "He writes MSDOS stuff too, so he's a 16 bit person!" - Chris Quinn Damn right I am :-D (And yes, i did not use that quote thingy to respond, too lazy haha)

I'm a retro person, so SafeDisc is required for all of my games to run. That's why. + my recent software that I made in VB6 runs only on NT4,Win2k and XP. Soooo yeah. Most of my programs that I use on a day-to-day basis are also extremely buggy on Vista and above.

Well yeah, but Vs2015 does not work on XP. Only the runtime for 2015 does. And 2010 is removed from Microsoft's site. Soooo what now? I'm kinda lost here unless I buy an old copy or something I think, right?

Oh nevermind, it requires Win2K for VB.NEt 2003, but what version are you all talking about, 2010 I assume?

I guess you're right. :/ But Visual _____ is MSDN and that is expensive as hell as far as I remember, + can I use it on Windows XP? All my PC's run it cause of SafeDisc bullsh*t that MS removed from All current versions. I'd really like to try VB.NET out seen that I have experience in QuickBASIC (all versions) and VB6, so piece of cake.

I did make a LOT of MS-DOS software, ask if you're interested.

But will that run on Windows XP x64? I have chosen VB6 to make my software compatible with Windows 98 and 95 but I'll need to leave that behind huh? VB.NET runs on the .NET framework I assume :P That requires Windows 2000 right?

How about a portable version instead of the NSIS installer. Portable

Its finished fully now. http://oldskool.quinsoft.nl/Files/setup.exe[^]

Is it actually possible for me to make an Windows Explorer but with more features just like Revolutions Pack? Or will VB6 make this impossible? Any tips are welcome.

Oops, just noticed that the file expired... hehe :/ Here is a more recent build: Cick Here, again[^]

xD, nice one

Ah, so in reply to the question if I need samples or ideas. I need code samples and other programs with source code... I have made a little installer now for a beta test: Click Here[^] It has no logo's yet, but is stable...

Me or the ones talking about cars for some reason?

Just did, spaghetti is gone, yay.... But uhm, so you are stating the language is dead and thsi is no use seeing the last Service Pack was in 1999?

I have no idea how this forums works anymore, you responded and now spaghetti in my messagebox full of tutorials.......... But i know VB6 is out-of date, I'm a retro guy, and win9X compatibily is crucial in my case.... who knows if anyone might have something I can fit in the program. :/

Hello, I am Quintus S. Creator of QuinSoft Netherlands and the software-collection programs named SniperOS for DOS. I am now coding version 3 on Visual BASIC 6 for a platform upgrade and useability change. And by software-collection I mean that SniperOS is basically one program containing a lot of tools, games and other useful stuff in one package. I am now searching everywhere to get software that people might like and/or use, so I am now asking the forum if they/you might have something others can enjoy. If you have any questions, mail me. Thank you for your help or even just reading this.
