Fares, you're in the wrong NG. Here we use ~VB6. Try a .net newsgroup

HTH

You're in the wrong newsgroup. This group is for the real Visual
Basic, the last version of which was VB6. I can understand your
confusion though because Micro$oft specifically wants to confuse
people in this respect. It is part of the unscrupulous and dishonest
Micro$oft marketing scam in which Micro$oft hope to separate you from
your hard earned cash by giving their new and completely different
product the same name as one of their previous and now discontinued
products (Visual Basic). I'm afraid you've been scammed. Any VB6
specific answers you get on this group will not work in the imposter.
Fortunately, the Micro$oft technical people do not seem to be quite so
unscrupulous or dishonest as their marketing counterparts because they
have created a new and completely different set of newsgroups for
their new and completely different product (the imposter you are
using). For questions relating to the imposter you might like to try
the following group.

   microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

You can get the net framework stuff from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=0856eacb-4362-4b0d-8edd
-aab15c5e04f5&displaylang=en
There is a version 1.1 , 2 and I believe 3.5
Your visual basic documentation should say which net framework version
you need to run your program .  My understanding is that you dont
distribute it with your application but install it before your program
gets installed .

this group is for visual basic 6.0 , you need a vb net group like
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb
