Does it have the data environment feature for Windows 8.1 systems?

S
Answer by Sean Hill

There is a page provided by Microsoft with this inquiry, but it doesn't specify if it works for Windows 8.1 OS. You need to access it and use that information while you're on Windows 8.1 to see exactly if it works or not.

Answer by Mary Nett

On Software Informer application's page you are able to find the Express version of Microsoft Visual Basic. You don't need other special apps to download and install Microsoft Visual Basic. It comes with Service Pack 6 and it is supported on both 32 and 64bit versions of Windows 7.

How can we write Farsi in Microsoft Visual Basic?

A
Answer by Aiden McLeod

According to its official website, it seems that you can use Farsi language in Microsoft Visual Basic. To do this, you need to download and install the language pack that is available on the developer's download page. The pack is available only for the latest version of the program. Also, you can check the following support website for more information regarding this matter.

Answer by Robert Polubinski

Yes, you can use Logitech G27 inputs with the Visual Basic but you will need to develop a DLL file based on the driver for this device. This is not freely available. You might need to get help from a freelancer because it requires extensive coding to achieve this.

Answer by Julia Bocchetta

You will need to wait a few minutes for the modules to load. The application takes a little time to start even on the newest computers because many modules need to load. During this time, the application also creates the necessary files for you to work with as well as paths and temporary files. Just leave the computer alone and the application should start normally.

Where can I possibly get the application package for Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 for Windows XP Service Pack 2?

S
Answer by Sean Hill

Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 is not available anymore and the product isn't used to develop new applications since Microsoft release another version called Microsoft Visual Studio which gradually increased the development methods. You might need to obtain it before starting to develop anything. The latest version is optimized to recognize all development languages. Visit the official website to find more information about it.

Output data from the program sometimes includes ANSI color code expressed in the format similar to "x1b[32m". In Teraterm, it shows the color character as being coded. However, it was different in textbox of VB. It is displayed like "", not the color.
What should I do to get the color of the character code?

L
Answer by Leonard Moore

Unfortunately, there is nothing that you can do. The color will not be displayed while debugging. However, you can manually look for the color code over the Internet, in order to check if the color used is matching the desired one. For additional information, use Google or the following page from Microsoft.
