Title | Determine whether a year is a leap year with Visual Basic 6 |
Description | This example shows how to determine whether a year is a leap year with Visual Basic 6. |
Keywords | leap year, year, dates |
Categories | Miscellany, Strings |

Thanks to WJK.
This example contains four functions that determine whether a year is a leap year. When the program starts, it uses each to see which years between 1880 and 2020 are leap years and adds them to four list boxes, one for each function. If you make the form tall enough, you can see that they all agree.
