I have VB6 professional version. Does the enterprise version offer alot more in regard to writing business apps using OOP? I read about the Visual Modeler. Is is worth it? Would appreciate knowing names of your favorite 3rd party tools I might try. Thanks for your input.

The visual modeler is just a tool to get a scheme of your app. I haven't used it before, because I like visio better to do the job. Visio 2000 comes with some good add-ins for VB. With those addins you can do the same as with the modeler. The reverse engineering addin has some bugs, but does a pretty good job. RE from visio to VB is also possible, which enables you to build a skeleton for your classes from a drawing.
There are several good tools out there. Going from professional to enterprise just for one tool isn't really nessecary, of course, if you want several tools, you might want to choose for the enterprise edition. It all depends on what you need, and what you want to spend on it.
