What is the last update for VB6?

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,

LLoyd

FWIW, I'm still on SP3 and happy with it.

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

Get SP 6... it's worth the download time.

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.

Time progressing does that

Why? Because there are more new objects to use, and a lot of the old
ones have been severely upgraded to function better... unless of course,
you LIKE living in the stone age...then by all means... don't upgrade.
