Most of my Power Tools are written in acomputer programming language known as Visual Basic (or just 'VB'). Thislanguage is easy to learn, and allows you to create Windows programs quickly. Over theyears it's become one of the most popular programming languages in the world.
Before you can install or run a programwritten in Visual Basic, you must first install the 'VisualBasic Runtime'.A runtime need only be installed once. Its files are then shared byevery VB program you install.
Currently, there are four versions ofthe VB runtime, one for each release of the VB programming language. The version of theruntime you should install depends on the version of the VB language used to write the VBprogram you want to run. For example, to run a program written in VB v6.0, you mustinstall the Visual Basic Runtime v6.0. If you are unsure which runtime version you need,you may download and install all four. Thatway you'll be ready for any VB program you might try in the future!
Note: Currently, all of Karen's Power Tools require the Visual Basic 6.0 runtime.It is the only runtime needed by her programs, and must be installed first (before installing any of her Power Tools).
