With Version 6, VB has added the ability to develop internet applications on Internet Information Server (IIS), the free web server that comes with NT Server.
Previously web functionality was static and limited but using IIS, ASP and ADO sophisticated, dynamic, data-driven web applications can be created. The web is the fastest growing programming area, now a powerful new platform for VB6 programmers to program web-based applications exists.

This book looks at the special demands of web programming, as well as its flexibility, and will introduce you to DNA – Microsoft's web development structure. Programming the browser through a variety of techniques – DHTML, scripting and VB components is discussed. Then how you can use VB to incorporate and customize browsers in your traditional VB applications is covered using MTS and MSMQ. From here, combining ASP and VB to produce dynamic web pages and sophisticated business logic processing for your website is discussed . Once the data has been collected, retrieving data through SQL Server and ADO is covered. Finally data transfer across the web with XML and the new web programming mechanism, Web Classes are introduced.
