VB6-ing the Web.

VB6-ing the Web.

My latest contract is wrapping up in a few weeks and I was asked if I would switch gears from Visual C++ to help put out some fires in VB6-land for another 3 to 4 weeks of madness.

Blew the dust off an old VB6 CD a few moments ago, then loaded it to brush up on writing a few test apps. My attention was quickly diverted to the DHTML Application Wizard that appears in the opening screen.
Double-clicked and discovered a cool RAD tool. It writes some of the generic initialization code in VBA, then presents the developer with an explorer-style dialogue box, complete with options to build a substantial web page.

If anyone is fairly new to webpages, and is considering getting VB6, and would like to roll their shirtsleeves up and exercise their prowess in both worlds, I recommend it.
