Hi, im new to Programming and im interested in buy a Visual Basic 6.0 book. I found a step by step book, but it said Visual Basic 6.0 Professional. Is there a difference between them? If so, are they both compatible with each other?

Yes, it's the same language. The Professional edition just comes with some extra tools and ActiveX controls.

Yes. The language syntax is (I believe) identical. It's just that you may hit parts of the book where they say to use a particular control, for example, and you don't have it. But for most purposes, it should be fine. Especially for the basics (no pun intended) of using the language. You might even find that the book outlines the differences between the standard and Professional editions. (You may be able to find such info at Microsoft's website, as well.)

I have a copy of MS Visual Studio 2002 Professional ACADEMIC which I understand is the same as the regular Professional version with the addition of a student CDROM. The installation program on the first CDROM only copies the MSDE to the harddrive and the copied setup file has to then be manually executed to complete the installation. Are the SQL tools such the SQL Enterprise Manager and MS Query included in the professional version? ...

I figured since a lot of us around here design sites for "customers" a lot, I'd ask a general question that might help a lot of us in the future. When dealing with clients asking for _professional_ web sites, I am constantly trying to explain why less is more; that professional-grade web sites should focus on functionality, usability, and accessibility before you even think about graphical design and layout. I read a great quote once on...

Is the main difference between the Visual Studio .NET Professional and Enterprise editions the inclusion (in Enterprise) of : 1. SourceSafe, 2. Visio (Architect), and (3) Win2003 Server integration? Also, if Professional doesn't include SourceSafe, but you ALREADY have SourceSafe, can you still use it within the Professional IDE? My guess is 'NO', since the Professional doesn't include the IDE integration DLLs for SourceSafe, but am just...

Hi, I'm about to download the Visual Studio 2008 Beta 2 development tool and I'm wondering which one I should download, the professional or standard. It is not clear to me what the difference is. The "Overview of Visual Studio 2008" does not seem to indicate what the difference is and I can't seem to find a FAQ on the topic. Aside from being over 4 times the size, what is the difference between the two? Thanks,

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
