SUMMARY
=======
This article lists the Visual Basic run-time files installed by each version of
Visual Basic, Service Packs, and other updates. This information is helpful
because problems can result when you distribute mismatched versions of these
files with your Visual Basic application.
NOTE: The run-time files listed in this article are the core dependencies
required by all 32-bit Visual Basic applications. Your application may require
additional files based on the components you have included.

The version of Msvbvm50.dll that ships with Service Pack 4 for Windows NT 4.0 is essentially the same as the version that shipped with Visual Basic 5.0 Service Pack 2 and Service Pack 3. The only difference is a change that was made to avoid a problem due to the new heap allocator in Windows NT 4.0, Service Pack 4. The version number is higher so that it will not
be overwritten.
