Windows Process Description:
The vb5db.dll file is described as a Microsoft Visual Basic (VB) ICursor Interface Library file with the latest version measuring a file size of 89,360 bytes. The file type of the vb5db.dll module is that of an application extension, but its functions are that of a dynamic link library (DLL) file. This only means that the vb5db.dll module, as a DLL file, is a collection of programs that are used for the purpose of making Microsoft Visual Basic, the software product housing the said file, to work properly.
Microsoft Visual Basic (VB) is an event-driven programming language and a development environment created by Microsoft. What Visual Basic does is that it enables the rapid application development (RAD) of graphical user interface (GUI) applications. It also enables access to certain databases and the creation of ActiveX controls. Visual Basic has one of the largest user bases in the realm of business. Its current competitors include C++, C#, and Java.
In the middle of all these, the utmost role of the vb5db.dll file, together with other DLL files, allows VB to link libraries coded up in another language like Delphi, Borland C++ or Microsoft's Visual C++ before compiling them during run-time. Since the module vb5db.dll came with the introduction of Visual Basic 5.0, what the file vb5db.dll and other DLL files in VB 5.0 introduced is the ability to create custom user controls and to compile other languages to native Windows executable code. The result of this is faster execution of calculation-intensive code.
More specifically, since the file vb5db.dll is an ICursor library file, it is important to define what ICursor is in the sphere of Microsoft VB.
In VB, there are basically two types of data-binding formats available for data controls and these are ICursor and OLE DB. ICursor is supported by VB 5.0 and 6.0 data controls, as well as the Microsoft Remote Data Control. OLE DB, on the other hand, is a new data-binding specification that ships with VB 6.0. For vb5db5.dll to function properly, it has the following DLL files as its dependencies: ole32.dll, kernel32.dll, and oleaut32.dll.
