Where the heck am I supposed to get Visual Studio, I don't have the cash to buy it! Help me out please...

Also, is VS.Net the ONLY compiler I can use for MQ??

Well, heres another issues im having. I am taking a visual basic (censor: i'm an idiot; please ignore me) class at my CC, and they gave me a Trial version of visual basic (censor: i'm an idiot; please ignore me), but the setup disk runs off of DVD-R, i dont have a DVD-R...any way to get the thing off there? lol...

And again, anything other than VStudio that can compile this stuff? Not including Visual C++

Dammit.

Visual Basic is for losers. You cannot compile MQ with VB.

Sorry, I really meant Visual Studio... :)

Ok, I got a download of Visual Studio 6.0, oldschool it looks like, but not sure /shrug...All I care about is I used Visual C++ 6.0 to compile it and BAM it worked, thank you god!! lol...

I too am in search of a Compiler. I obtained a version of visual basic (censor: i'm an idiot; please ignore me) 6.0, but i dont beleive that this program works to compile macroquest. Anyone know any sites where i can get a valid compiler please? thank you
