which implies you can't do it in VB6.

what has that got to do with "more unstable language". Also, since when is VB6 "not made to use APIs". That's quite frankly totally and utterly wrong. The method and function declarations are especailly made for that.

very old fairy tale used by those who hate VB6. VB6 can handle pointers perfectly.

If your program hangs (happens when making addons), you cannot stop it without exiting the whole IDE. And if you forgot to save before you click "Execute/Compile", it's gone.
that has nothing todo with "stability of the language" at all. That has todo with the IDE.

The native error messages are very descriptive. The normal error messages are just as normal as error messages in any other language.

??? yes you can. And, ok maybe not in the way you debug a C app, but that's because it is a higher level language.

What has either got to do with the other? VB is _aimed_ for another audiance. That doesn't mean you can't do certain stuff with it.

sorry but no...

You hate VB6... perfectly fine... But if you want to tell people not to use it, stick to the facts please, instead of old fairy tales and typical hear-say from sworn C users which only shows that you do not know what VB6 can or can't do.
Also, people already directed the top-poster to what he needs. I don't need to post further. My post was to make it clear that what you said about VB6 isn't true at all.

Oh, and I don't see any rude stuff posted in my previous post at all. And I think everybody else would agree. In fact, it is you who just now replied with calling me names. So I don't see either why that previous post triggered the urge to give me a negative reputation.
