Christof,

Precursor not the actual code base to create VS... PWB was the first real integrated development environment MS offered. Before then we were creating make and batch files to get our exes built. I even wrote a make maker to simplify my life.

Were you even born when MS C 6.0 shipped? *lol*

You kids have it sooooo easy nowadays.. click one button....

>>Not really. MS C 6.0 used the Programmers Workbench (PWB) and that was the precursor to VS.

>Not really. *g* Visual Studio.NET bases on the VB6 IDE. Features like DSW files (now SLN) have been added to the VB version.
