Availability of VB3

[jbrowne]

Hi,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Does anyone know if VB 3 is still for sale. If there is a site that I could get it down from it would be most useful as I need to do some work on a project written in VB 3.<br><br>Thanks in advance<br>John B<br>

VB3 has been discontinued for a long time now, and it was a few years back that Microsoft even declared Vb3 dead and obselete. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

Thanks Karl,<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;Its surprising though that someone doesn't sell archieve versions of this type of stuff. The project that I am involved with is written in Vb3 and still very much alive and needs some maintenance work.

if you have a higher version of VB, and your Vb3 project doesnt use alot of custom controls( if they do there are some controls that were custom then, that exist as built in functions in newest versions ) most versions of VB are backward compatible, I am able to open a Vb4 project, and save it as a Vb6, seldomly I was able to convert a Vb3 to a VB6, which some changes to the controls used. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

they dont have VB3, they have an addon for vB3, but not VB3 itself. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=
