I already have a full copy of visual basic 2006 and the msdn libraries for vb2006. I got them from file shareing programs. I have vb6-professional which includes a compiler and I also have the msdn library images as iso files. I also have the DirectX-Eight sdk. I'll keep this email around though for future reference.
