Still trying to figure out why my vb6 app takes so much longer to process data on a remote server than a corresponding classic asp web page...<br />
<br />
How often should I open a data connection with a connection string? &nbsp;Currently I open it once as the page processes on my classic asp page but I open and close it every time I access data on my vb6 app. &nbsp;Should I just open it and leave it open on the vb6 app?

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.

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.
