Visual Basic Runtime Files
URL: http://www.microsoft.com

These files are required by any program written in the Visual Basic programming language. Because over the years there have been several versions of Visual Basic, diffeent programs may require a different version of the runtime file. Apart from VB Runtime 4.0, which comes with a setup routine, you'll need to copy the other VB Runtime files into your Windows directory.
