	Searching for +CGI +"Visual Basic" with Altavista gave
	many hits. Please, use the search engines first.

Sure, but a small hint can save me lots of time of searching through 10000
articles.
Is there THE solution, or are there just workarounds?

2543.4WIN CGI vs C++ ?ULYSSE::CLARID::KOCHANTue May 06 1997 10:599
Hi Yorihito

This looks intersting (win cgi), but it doen't look like something which will
become a standard earlier or later. I think it better if I just switch to C++
fro my CGI work.

What do you think?

    Depends on your Version of VB
    
    4 or earlier then you need a copy of WINCGI.BAS which can be found on
    most Shareware sites, it normally comes with full docs.
    
    In VB5 it's all built in
    
    These days I'd recommend not using CGI but ASP

hmm, I have V5, but can not find anything regarding CGI or WINCGI. What should
I look for?

And what does ASP stand for?

    Have a play with the Application Wizard. This will build a shell app
    for you which you tailor using the wizard. One of the things you can
    tick is internet enable the app.
