I am looking to purchase Visual Basic 6 and i need to know what version of Visual Basic 6 can make the program a stand-alone executable?

I know visual studio 6 enterprise edition can, but i'm only going to get the visual basic 6 alone!

thanks

The Professional and Enterprise editions can both compile executables, though bear in mind no VB executable will ever be truly stand-alone. See here for more information:

Even the Learning Edition of VB6 can compile.

Squirm

This is misleading. If the Learning Edition can compile to anything (which I doubt), it certainly
can't compile to native code. The feature comparison I posted above supports this.

I've had the Learning Edition for some time, I'm not sure whether it only compiled to p-code.
