Hello All
I want to create a exe of Note which i have developed in VB6

Does any one know how to do it?

Select the MAKE EXE option from file menu in VB 6 IDE.

1. Go to Project->Project Properties, In General Tab make sure that your Project Type is Standard Exe. You can also change the Application Title, Icon, Version and Version Information in Make Tab.
2. If you sure to build it then go to File->Make Project.Exe, Save Dialog will appear to save your Exe File, default path is your project path.
3. Check after save the exe file. it already to run. Just it.

If you want to distribute your app to other people, you'll also need all the runtime DLL files. You might want to look at the VB Package and Deployment Wizard. It will guide you on how to package up your app for deployment. Navigate to All Programs->Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0->Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 Tools->Package & Deployment Wizard.

If you want to simply create an EXE just for your PC, you can go to FILE > MAKER "YOU PROJECT NAME".EXE. It will automatically create an EXE file for you which is only for your own PC.

If you plan to distribute the application, got to START > ALL PROGRAMS > MICROSOFT VISUAL BASIC 6.0 > MICROSOFT VISUAL BASIC 6.0 TOOLS > PACKAGE AND DEVELOPMENT WIZARD

you will see a PACKAGE AND DEVELOPMENT WIZARD window. Click "BROWSE" button and look for the .VBP file then click either PACKAGE BUTTON OR DEPLOY BUTTON.

If your IDE is student edition you can't MAKE an "exe". It is meant for learning only. therefore you have to buy a professional edition...
