So, who's brave enough to admit they still use VB6 and post a little starter program that shows how to integrate XMLRPC and it's procedure calls with VB 6?

I've done VB.NET and it sux so I'm not going there. I also have Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 and I'm not going there (again) either.

So . . . HELP :_( PLEASE

Hate to say it but I agree. I finally figured out SnapConnect with Python recently. It was a great feeling and finally could proceed with my project until I had to start learning wxPython. I get it, I just don't like it, too slow and tedious. After trying almost half a dozen versions of GUI wxPY Form Designers with the only one I liked, unfortunately costing $$$, I went back to VB having wrapped my head around SNAPConnect in Python I thought VB would be easier this time. I love the way the VB GUI design works but the coding with it is no fun. If one could get VB's integration of quality graphic interface design & coding development to apply to the Python system, and offer a VP Express version for free that one would actually have more than 30 days to make a fully functional application on we'd have it made. :eek:

topherness54, I will toss out that all versions of SNAP Connect (inc. on the E10) support an XML-RPC mode that allows you to use any GUI program you'd like including VB.

It's not the SNAP Connect, It's the VB, Great GUI design, nightmare coding. Python is the opposite in my opinion, simple coding, nightmarish GUI design tools. I am sure my experience level doesn't help any either, I am not a beginner but not a pro when it comes to coding by an means either. I code only when needed rather than it being my full time job so I have intervals where I have plenty of time to forget things between programming projects.
