How to Implement a wait() in VB6

Here is how I created a Wait() for VB6.
Needed for a project to allow form code to pause while still allowing a 3rd party control to upload a file to a server.

Public Sub Wait(milliseconds As Integer)
Dim dTimer As Double
dTimer = Timer
Do While Timer dTimer + CDbl(milliseconds / 1000)
DoEvents
Loop
End Sub

Mainstream support phases for .NET

Microsoft has published a new article about .NET 3.x support policy:

Mainstream support phases will end as follows:

.NET 2.0: 4/12/2011
.NET 3.0: 4/12/2011
.NET 3.5: 4/12/2011
.NET 3.5 SP1: 1/13/2015 (part of Windows 7)
.NET 4.0: ? at least 3/31/2015
Beginning with .NET 3.5 SP1, the .NET Framework is considered a Component of the Windows OS. Components follow the Support Lifecycle policy of their parent product or platform.

Determine if .net 2.0 framework service packs are installed.

To determine if a service pack is installed on a specific framework version :
- open the registry editor(regedit)
(All versions are listed to the path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\)
- Look at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\vX.X.XXXXX
(Where the X means the version to check
- Look at the key SP, the value is the service pack installed

In exemple, for the framework 2.0 
Path : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v2.0.50727
Key SP value : 1

This information means the Framework 2.0 sp1 is installed

Windows Password Reset Tool

http://pogostick.net/~pnh/ntpasswd/

• This is a utility to reset the password of any user that has a valid (local) account on your Windows NT/2k/XP/Vista/Win7 etc system.
• You do not need to know the old password to set a new one.
• It works offline, that is, you have to shutdown your computer and boot off a floppydisk or CD or another system.
• Will detect and offer to unlock locked or disabled out user accounts!
• There is also a registry editor and other registry utilities that works under linux/unix, and can be used for other things than password editing.
