Hi, I've got Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and I'm programming in Visual Basic in it. In VB6 you just click on make exe in the file menu, but I can't find that option in 08, does someone know how to make an executable in visual studio 08 using visual basic?

thanks in advance

Yeah that doesn't work here, and what is the open ???.txt for output as #1 in 08. The before code doesn't work.

That code won't work anymore; VB6 has been depreciated, and VB.NET chopped out a lot of that old code (to make it more OO, you see).

You'll want to read up on System.IO.FileStream.
