Would someone please post the Visual Basic 5.0 Help File?
Hi Guys, I have VB 6 which means I'm forced to use MSDN which a lot of the time it's really helpful, but an even greater percentage of the time it's just a useless pain in the ass. I was wondering if someone would post the VB5 help file or e-mail it to me so that I can use it with VB6.
Hi Guys,

I was wondering if someone would post the VB5 help file or e-mail it to me so that I can use it with VB6. I hardly consider this piracy, because not only did I own VB5 in the past, but I am a legal owner of VB6 which if they hadn't screwed it up, it would still contain this useful file. In my opinion the only reason microsoft pulled this file is so they can extort 100+ dollars a year from programmers for an MSDN Library subscription. If you know how to upload the file to a server and link to it here please do so. If not just e-mail (Christian_Blackburn@Hotmail.com) it to me and I'll post it for everyone.
Thanks for your help -> My Hero!

Hi Jimbo,
I have the files now. Thanks all the same. My brother-in-law gave me VB5 as a gift so I'm set.
