I have read the post for the visual basic 6.0 user, but i think my question is not violate the rule because i just wanna asking the different in briefly. I have to choose between visual basic 6.0 or visual basic 2008 express edition for my system. But both application have their points, which is i have all reference for visual basic 6.0 with sample project posted by other user in planetsourcecode, so it easy for me to refer, but the visual for vb6.0 is more to windows 98, looks bored. For visual basic 2008 express edition, i really like the visual, which is up to date, like windows vista and windows xp, but i dont have any reference to refer, such as the how to connect to an access database etc or maybe there is a link like planetsourcecode lol. So in order to use vs08 exp edition i need to do a lot reasearh and a lot question, and i only knew the only place to do that is in here, in this forum, so maybe it takes a lot of time while waiting for someone to reply my question etc.

So, any suggestion which should i use? Or any refference i can refer? Thanks in advance. Hi eimex, First install VB 2008 and ask if you r stuck anywhere.
