WIndows 2003 server (Web Edition) and VB app

[None]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.advanced_server (More info?)

Hello
We are buying a new server to store files on and to run some
utility apps. We were looking to save some money and get the web
edition. We wanted to make sure our VB apps would run on the machine
before we bought it. Are there any restriction on running VB apps, or
installing the Visual Studio 6.0 on the machine for debugging those
apps?

You should not have any problems running VB apps on it. There are a
number of services that are missing from this edition though. You'll
want to review the restriction lists below:

I posted this message while waiting for a response from a form I filled
out on a Microsoft pre sales site. The response I received was the
exact opposite of you posting. Are you really from Microsoft, or did
you spoof me?
