autoit or vb6?

[wesley]

Hi guys

I have been using autoit for a while. I think I should start learn vb as it is widely known language.

I have tried vb6 from microsoft but the software is very basic. When type anything,it doesn't dropdown with option of different commands like you have in autoit which make the job easier

Is there any different software that can make vb scripts easier visually.

Cheers

Thank for the reply

I knew I got it wrong lol

So what is vb6 and vb script?

I work at local college as an IT technician so we got lot of software.

basically it's just a project I like to make.

A window box pop up and scan the registery to check if the software are there or not, if not then listing down with button to install or upgrade the software automatically.

Each software will have its own script to install automatically, send the command like press button or click next button, change options, filling out the company name and serial key etc. I use autoit for this and it works very well. silent switches doesn't work well as it would install as default.

Would microsoft visual basic 2008 express edition be for this project? I even dont know what language it uses lol what language does autoit uses?

Cheers
