Salmon King Seafood is the fictitiuos company created by the Brown brothers in the 80s.
To support their business they created a VB6 app, which has helped them to become successful.
This app shows some very common VB6 features and controls. The idea of this app is to provide an example to showcase some the solutions for VB6 migration and app modernization from Mobilize.NET
The SKS is a Multiple Document Interface (MDI) VB6 apps.
The main form is the MDI container, and the rest of the forms are triggered from the menu on this mdi container.
When the app starts after an splash window that is hidden using a VB.Timer, the main MDI pops up with the Orden Reception.

The database used is an SQLite Database called Orders.db
