Visual Basic by mad_onion on 01-08-2005 at 05:24 PM

You cannot get Visual Basic without paying for it. If it is College or University then it should be supplied for you. If its high school, they only have enough licences for their PCs and won't supply you with it.
Asking where to download software you need to pay for is illegal and against forum rules.

There was a free version (official, legal), but it doesn't let you compile your programs.
I think this version is out there, somewhere. But it's very old. :\ Can't remember the name, though.

Last I checked, Microsoft discontinued distribution of said version.
