Visual Basic 6; Ressources/Forums?

Post by HanPBF »

Hi!

Anyone knows good Visual Basic 6 currently-active forums? (I already asked almighty Godoogle)

As starting with CodeJock OCXs, I will use VB6 and MS Access to run those controls on.
Later I want them embed in PB with COMate.

Reason to use VB6/MS Access first is: it's still working on Windows 10, CodeJock simply-quickly runs and debugging/overall handling is faster than with PB (re-set point of execution, more debug info, etc.).
I will later use those controls in MS Excel/MS Access (Excel is alive now and in 1000years...).


So, anyone knows good still-available ressources?

Thanks a lot!
Regards


There is nothing between VB6/Office/PureBasic/Python and JS/HTML/CSS/nw.js (no JAVA, no .Net, etc.).

Doesn't .NET have a better interface for Excel?

Personally I just use VBA. I've done complex financial solutions that used network scraping using it in the native editor and I pretty much self-taught two-days before..

Thanks a lot for the list!

.NET: Yes, .NET was a great idea. But the overall behaviour of VS-even-2015 is slow/bad.
I want a python like language fast as PB (for the static parts) on a RISC-OS :wink:
