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.)
