Visual Basic for Applications

How to install Visual Basic for Applications 6.0 (VBA 6.0 and not VB 6.0)?

Actually I am trying to install "Microsoft Office 2000 Developer VBA Tools" which is available in one of the Miscrosft Office 2000 Developer CDs. It has asked me to install VBA 6.0 prior to installing these tools and I am not able to find out from where I can install them.

Pls. help.

Do you have office installed?

"VBA 6" is part of Office 2000 profesional installation.
you cannot install JUST VBA 6.0.  As Richie pointed out, VBA 6.0 is BUILT INTO Office 2000, and is not a separate, stand-alone product. However, if you were an independent software developer, and wanted to ADD VBA support to your product, Microsoft would be glad to talk with you about licensing VBA for use IN your product, as it is used in WordPerfect, or AutoCad, etc.

I have Office 2000 premium installed on my machine. Will that not suffice. Do I need to go for Office 2000 professional only?

what is not installed by default is VBA help.
I had MS Access Run time files prior to installing Microsoft Office 2000 Developer VBA Tools. That is why the option available for installing VBA Developer tools was disabled in the Miscrosft Office 2000 Developer CD. I got rid of Run time files by resinatlling my operating system and I was able to install VBA developer tools from Office 2000 premium CD.

So I guess the answer is closer to the one given by Richie_Simonetti. So I would award points to him.
