Now i am planning to buy vb4.0 becuase vb6.0 is not easily avilable and is also very expensive. Will those vb6 project files i made work on visual basic 4 ? What are the difference between them ?

I have a main web form that has a series of buttons (ADD, UPDATE, REPORT etc) and I want to be able to incorporate either a module or user control, whichever you think best. I am also having a problem figuring out how to go about allowing for multiple user controls based on what button they clicked. For ADD, I am just either hiding or making visible the table. Any help, code samples, would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks!
