Microsoft plus Programming Software

As Microsoft releases the sixth version of its award-winning development tool, more than 50 percent of all professional developers are using the Visual Basic language. Visual Basic 6.0 is the most productive tool for creating high-performance enterprise and Web-based applications. Integrated Visual Database Tools and a RAD environment promote productivity while native code compilation provides fast applications. Use the Visual Basic 6.0 integrated Visual Database Tools and new Data Environment Designer to visually design Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server databases and create reusable data access queries - all without leaving the Visual Basic environment. Build server-side Web applications that are easily accessible from any browser on any platform with Visual Basic 6.0 WebClasses. Program highly interactive Web pages as easily as a Visual Basic form with the new Dynamic HTML Page Designer. Quickly develop rich data forms, or use the new integrated Report Writer to develop sophisticated, hierarchical reports, all with drag-and-drop ease.
