MSDN Library installation - what do I need

I have 3 CDs of MSDN library. Do I need it all for VB development ?

Does anyone know what MSDN Documentation Groups 1 & 2 are ?
These two items take over 700 meg of disk space, so I want to be sure
I will need them.

Many thanks for any help.

the MSDN library contains A LOT of help related stuff. i would suggest
installing, unless you already know everything.

but then again, it's pretty much all available to be searched on the web
- msdn.microsoft.com

still, to have it local on your HDD is handy for quick access. you can
add sections of it to your favourites, just like using WWW
