    welcome to the site and i m glad to see you want to contribute to the forum

    you can learn by getting a book
    also there are lots of good tuts and links to tuts in this forum about vb

    if you need any help one to one i would suggest pming the_skip, ricky92 or robawtic as they all know vb6 and are active
    pankirk is also a good one to pm

    well good luck

    I made a bunch of things allready. I spend a couple hours (LIKE, 6) last nght reading as many tutorials as I could. I made an avvie grabber, web browser, and a couple other programs. My math teacher is a BIG help, as he knows VB6 very well :) I have designed a MSAB, buy it is yet to be coded.

    that is cool
    why don't you submit them?
    oh and do you find it strange when you go to your maths teacher to ask him for help?

    Nope. It's easy asking him for help. He's a realy cool teacher :) And Expon (sKyline_) said that we can't submit programs until the new forum is open :(

    nobody's hard-earned points will be lost... they'll all be transferred over.

    As for the new forum... it's still in beta... and there's still no release date for 3 stable.

    Wow that's alot of hard work, Good Job!
    Would you mind if I PMed you about some of the tut sites, I'm attempting to learn as well, though this is totally alien to anything I've tried before, so it's taking me awhile to learn.

    Sure, PM me all you want :) Here's a tip - download code samples (not the whole project) and play around with it, figuring what does what. Like, change some things to see what happens :)
