All you need to do is make sure the 3rd party controls/DLL's are in your System directory and it should run fine.

Hi,

The problem here is that we are using a lot of 16 bit DLLs.
Now will the calls to these 16Bit DLLS give me problems if i try to use them from 32Bit VB6?
Should i use thunking to avoid these problems?

Thanks,
