Hi Mohsin, Good deal. Those would be my choices as well. Those are my two primary programming languages, and while I can use something else I find those two to be the best for what I want to do. :D Cheers! On 8/19/13, Mohsin Ali wrote: > Hi Thomas. > > > thanx for the explaination, > > I think

Hi Mohsin, When it comes to which language to use it is largely personal choice, what you feel most comfortable with, and which language is best for the task at hand.For many reasons I do not recommend VB 6 because it is really really old and is not officially supported on Windows 7 and Windows 8.
