I haven't used Visual Basic much, so this might be a silly question.
I'm taking forms that were created in the VBA tool in Excel and re-creating them in VB (the version I'm using is the Working Edition of VB6). I tried just exporting the forms (.frm file) from Excel VBA and adding them to a new project in VB, and I can pull it in, but then I can't edit the form at all, nor can I make an .exe out of it. Any ideas?

Also, the forms in Excel VBA use a toggle button, but there is no toggle button in my version of VB. Do I need another version? What does "working edition" actually mean?

Thanks!
Kelly
 
I have not tried the Excel form export, so I can not help you there.

To enable toggle boxes:
Install the Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library (Under the Project Menu, then select components).
