The answer to the second question is "no, it's not impossible." I believe the answer to the second question is "no, you can't compile VB on FreeBSD." To resolve the apparent contradiction, the second answer needs to be expaned to include "until someone creats a VB compiler for FreeBSD." In other words, it's not impossible, but it hasn't been done yet. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
