Hello,

Is VC++ 6.0 available to buy anymore?
I've just been to www.msdn.microsoft.com and it doesn't look it.

Not directly from Microsoft, but you do have some choices.

1. There are probably retailers out there that still have copies (EBay
anyone?)
2. You can buy the current version and "downgrade" to VC6 by calling product
support.
3. VS6 is still included in MSDN subscriptions, so you could buy MSDN
Professional (or higher) and get it that way.

Option 3 is by far the best, IMO, since that also gets you VS.NET 2002 and
VS.NET 2003, and a lot of other stuff as well.
