Hello,

I know some of you may be aware of the new vote on the MS user voice site to push MS to bring back support/enhancement to vb6.

http://visualstudio.uservoice.com/fo...improved-versi

In the last month there has been a surge of votes/activity and I urge you, if you have not already go and vote.

I really believe if we can get to 12,000 votes or so(my opinion), MS cannot ignore it. I have two over 100k lines of code apps with thousands of users, and have struggled to find a proper replacement for vb6. I know many .net folks cringe at the idea, but I'm we want to create native apps that are not bogged down with a huge framework of classes we don't need, and JIT compilation. My apps are NOT business apps they control robotics and radio station automation where native apps just perform better because of constant hardware interaction...

As you know VBA was recently updated in office to include 64bit compilation.. it would reason the same code base is in the msvb6..dll and could easily be updated as well.

Please help our cause and vote. As a group of vb6 users we all appreciate the support.

If there is anyone from MS on this forum that has any inside advice for us.. speak up!

Good Day!
