Because .Net is the latest version, stores tend to only stock that. &nbsp;Amazon.co.uk still has them listed but are out of stock at the moment, other than that try E-Bay

I had clients tell me that distributors won't sell them VS 6.0 unless they had a previous license for VS 6. &nbsp;Not that they didn't stock it but they WOULDN'T. &nbsp;They were forced to buy .NET. &nbsp;If you have a previous license, you may still be able to get Visual Studio, otherwise, you're probably going to have to use .NET. &nbsp;Again, this is only what I've heard from clients.<br />

I already have VB6 and I have taken on a new programmer so I want to purchase another copy so that I am licensed up.<br />
<br />
Any ideas what I have to do to get a copy ?

Why can't I buy VB6 in the UK any longer

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
