Greetings From A DarwinBots Newbie...

Also, if you like, there are ways to install vb6 on windows7 and windows8 even. It is good to have fresh eyes on the project.
If you need a fully portable version of Darwinbots I can hook you up with that as well (no need to worry about the registry (I think))
Other then that, DB works pretty much the same on XP as on windows7, I have yet to find a very specific difference.

The OCX issue is the usual Common Control registration. Not an issue to clear up.

(laughs) Sorry...Misuse of the word 'dissertation'. It's just a bunch of bullets and such with a programmers 'User' perspective as I found myself obsessed with playing with DB2 when I discovered it a month ago. Quirks, unfriendly things, bugs, "why is it programmed this way"...things like that. In programming projects, I'm known as the 'front-end' programmer. Always putting emphasis on the user iteration with the program. The minute I realized I would want to get involved, I started jotting down notes as I played.

Installing VB6 on Win7 (32 and 64) is not an issue if you know the trick: Install the base program, then SKIP installing SP5, which introduces MDAC issues, and go straight for SP6B. Done this on several Win7 machines, and actively program VB6 at work and at home, both on Win7.64.

DB2 is already very standalone. I even run it from a stick no matter where I am. That's one reason I press the local-referencing for paths and such. To ensure it stays that way.

Panda:
Heya~! I'm glad there's another person who loves DB2 so much. :D

Botsareus:
Gives me someone to hand over the project when I am done with it  :D

Peter:
Someone to help you with bugs. ;)

I dislike users. They never know what they want and too stupid to use the damn interface properly. :P
