Learning-Professional-Enterprise

[Darrell]

Greetings,
I wish to purchase Visual Basic (5 or 6) with cost being a major factor. In
perusing eBay, I find that there are at least 3 versions of each.
I would like to know the differences between the Learning edition, the
Professional edition and the Enterprise edition.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.

if cost is the major factor -
in order of price : learning edition, professional edition, then enterprise
edition
professional edition will be the one to go for in most cases

Be very careful on EBay, there are sharks there selling copied CDs or
Far Eastern clones of VB5 and 6 as the real thing.

A Far Eastern clone can be picked up for around $3 in Bankok

What you are probably after is 'Visual Studio 98 Professional'

If you end up wanting the enterprise edition, your most economical means of
acquiring that is with an MSDN subscription.
