# Installation - Visual Basic 6

Microsoft Visual Basic 6 can use our library as an ActiveX control. This means that developers using Visual Basic 6 can seamlessly integrate the functionality provided by our framework into their applications, enhancing their capabilities and performance. Only the x86 version is available because Visual Basic 6 is a 32-bit application and does not support 64-bit development.

This limitation arises because Visual Basic 6 was developed in an era where 64-bit computing was not yet prevalent, and as such, it remains bound to the 32-bit architecture. Despite this, our framework ensures robust and reliable performance within the 32-bit environment, providing all necessary features and functionalities.
