The question almost says it. What is the last version issued, and where
might one now find the updates to get to that version?
Thanks,

There have been things that have caught me out that have been fixed in
later service packs :)
I can't remember details though.

I've got it. Thanks, guys.
I dunno, though. I'm working on some old legacy repairs. I can't make
the object file come out the same length as the old ones, even tho' the
re-compiled object seems to work fine. Turned on and off every switch I
could find for run-time checking, updated my VBrun libraries... Oh, well
Sigh.... the "latest" when it was compiled may not be the latest now.

I don't think you'd ever get object files the same length/content, even
when compiling twice in a row.
Sigh.... the "latest" when it was compiled may not be the latest now.
Time progressing does that :)

Why? Because there are more new objects to use, and a lot of the old

you LIKE living in the stone age...then by all means... don't upgrade. :)

What is new in SP6? I think your getting confused between
VB6 (as the version after VB5) and SP6 which is just bug
fixes (or bug introductions depending on how you want to
look at it)

Before you condemn something new, at least read the
release notes. And if all else fails, just get the service
pack and install it... if you don't like the changes, uninstall it.
Otherwise, have fun in the 19th century. :)

*ALL* came with VB6. Windows common controls 6.0 came with
VB6 - service packed or not.
>Before you condemn something new, at least read the

If you can point me to an online version I would happily do
just that. However, you seem to *know* what 'new' and
'upgraded' features there are, so I was kinda hoping you'd
share this knowledge with me and any other passing reader of
this thread.
So far you haven't listed anything that you wouldn't get
with an un-service packed version of VB6.
