http://google.com search for Visual basic compiler, theres many of them... free and paid.

free = illigal i think :p

free = illigal i think :p

Nope, people actually make there own program to compile visual basic.

ooooh, I'm interested in this... what's the difference between a paid and free compiler? Do you think the paid ones have more newbie options, tips, "wysiwyg" type help (such as insert > combobox)? Or maybe the free ones are only like notepad, but they save it as a program?

Also, are compilers kind of like an installation of visual basic? Or do you have to intall it seperately, then get a program to make it... into a program?

Also, what's so special about Visual Basic.net?

I personally have Vb Studio 6, and have all i need My uncle got it at a yard sale for $1 :P haha

I have Visual Basic CD with me, but I guess it'd be illegal to share it with others.

Yep it will be illegal as Microsoft wants us to pay money to use their software 8-X , there really are alot of of Compilers that are free i googled them and i personally found 1 :D

Well, technically, to burn a cd is wrong, but there are still disputes about burning/downloading. People think it's stealing, but it's not technically stealing. Here's dictionary.com's definition of stealing:
Steal: To take (the property of another) without right or permission.
Well, in this case, you're not "taking" it, because the person who you got it from still has the original object. Yes, I understand that people would go out and buy the program instead of copying it, but it's not exactly "stealing." Which is why there are still disputes

Now don't start getting angry with me lol; I was just saying the opinions of the "disputers," just to make things interesting
