I have a customer that does not allow for local installation of any version of MSDN so telling me to press the help or F1 key in VB6 will not help. What I need is a link to VB6 IDE functionality (ie all of the special characters in the find dialogue to help in searching or how to effectively use "use pattern matching" when I press CTRL+F).

View 4 RepliesI want to make an online transaction program for which I need help. The problem is that, if a branch enters an entry that entry should hit three system�s databases. These three systems are connected to network but the application is not connected. For example, there is two branches namely branch1 and branch2 and a head office namely HO1. If a user at branch1 enters a record that record not only hit that branch database, but also hit branch2 and HO1 databases as well. Can I use Virtual Private Network (VPN) to do this?
