I have various C++ programs - some of them very large - and need to run them with my VB6 project. Do I have to translate them into VB6 or is there a way to run them simultaneously

I know the shell function<br>
My problem is that the C++ programs are not compiled - I would not even not how to compile them<br>
I have Visual studio6 and have heard that a C++ and VB6 program can run together in one project.<br>

Hi Peekay!<br>
<br>
The development environments for VB and VC++ are totally different, so you can't load them up together. If they are cooperative apps (use winsock or COM to talk back & forth), then you can load them up separately, and debug them separately. Rates at only 35% on the fun-meter, and you need a lot of memory on your machine, but I've done it.<br>
