Suggestions on Which Type Of VB Project to Use

[JohnBates]

Hi,

I'm using VB 6 to build a small app to add/change/delete
order information - the usual order header and order detail tables. The db is SQL Server 7

But rather than just create a Standard exe like I usually do, I want to experiment with some of the other types (Active X exe or ActivexDocument.exe or DHTML App or ?? - to learn more about VB.

Dont want to use ASP, I've done that before.

What other project types would work well for a simple app that the user will use to add order information and change or delete rows?

Thanks for any ideas.
John

You could go multitier.

For instance:

1. Create an ActiveX exe for raw data access.
2. Create an ActiveX dll as a wrapper around the data layer (to provide a programmer friendly object architecture to the UI).
3. Create an ordinary exe as UI.
