Error. Classes In VBA. Introduction To Classes This page is an introduction to Classes. Classes are a very powerful tool in intermediate to advanced level VBA programming. This page is an introduction to what a class and an object are and will hopefully get you started working with classes. This is by no means a comprehensive guide. Entire books have been written about Object Oriented Programming, of which classes are an essential component. In VBA, a class is defined in class module and serves as a template for an object. The term object is deliberately vague. You must instantiate a class into an object in order to do anything with it. Dim C As Class1 Set C = New Class1 where Class1 is the name of the class module. NOTE: It is also possible to combine the two statements above into a single statement:Dim C As New Class1 This is called an auto-instancing variable.

Before getting in to classes and objects, it will prove useful to examine briefly a class's logical ancestor, the Type declaration.

Posted On 2009-06-23 by FortyPoundHead Keywords: VB6 Visual Basic 6 Visual Studio Install How To Tutorial Legacy Development Tags: Visual Basic 6 Tutorial Software Hack/Tweak Windows 7 Vista Windows Views: 395471 After surfing around the net, I've found very little information regarding installation of VB6 on Windows 7. Most of the information out there is for Vista, and most of it is queries for assistance.

You may be wondering why someone would want to utilize VB6 on a shiny new operating system like Windows 7. Or even Vista for that matter. There are about a bazillion legacy applications out there that have to be supported, and people like me who speak VB6 need to have the tools installed on our workstations in order to implement and test updates and such for these legacy applications. This process has been tested on Windows 7, both 32 bit and 64 bit, with no problems. So without further delay, here is the process that I have used on my Windows 7 machines to install Visual Basic 6.
