    Well, since we can't tell you to go on Google, go on Ask Jeeves or Yahoo?

    Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition is available for free download at microsofts site, check that out. VB6 is a little outdated, you'll find that you will learn more with Vb2008.

    Use Google, it does bring up results.

    I got my copy through Limewire, and it's the full whack - VB6 Professional. I recommend you either use VB2005 or VB2008, VB6 is horrible and it's very outdated.

    Basicly what i said, lol.

    Yeah, get VB2008, it's easier to learn code, when you type something in it automaticly comes up a box with available add ons you could use and what they do, really helpful.

    100% free but you need to register it before 30 days which is also 100% free, all you have to do is get an email sent to your inbox, and get the serial.

    They are bad tutorials, anyway. vb6 is the same as 2008 although some code is different but is easy to figure out, for example, in vb6 you would use:

    Text1.text (By default)

    2008:
    Textbox1.text (By default)

    And theres more options in 2008, learn it instead of an outdated language like vb6.

    VB6 and VB2008 have the same syntax, just different variables, names for objects i.e. what Jamie has said.
