    Are there any programs which convert vb6 FORMS & projects to vb5 forms & projects(NOT VB6 compiled projects)? Or is there a method in vb6 to save forms and projects as vb5?

    Thumbs up

    Vb6 forms and other files can be opened in Vb5. The project file Vbp cannot be opened before you delete it's Retain Key in a text editor ie notepad. Also, there can be other invalid keys, just watch what vb5 says and then go remove it.

    One way of doing it is the backdoor method.
    Open a project in vb5 and go to {Project ..Add Forms..add from your VB6 project } and then save the project in VB5...worked for me when I used VB6 at home and VB5 at school.

    But not with this way. Take a look at this program. It converts VB6 to VB5.
