    Check your user rights under Windows 2000. That was the only problem I encountered when I converted to Windows 2000.

    Have you installed VB6 SP4, and there is also a SP1 for
    windows 2000.
    I have no problems at all with my version.

    Doesn't anybody ever read the error codes?

    Couldn't find installable ISAM.
    You're missing a DATABASE driver... Try installing MDAC (Microsoft Data Access Objects). You can find it on the MS site by searching for MDAC or MDAC_TYP.

    Also installing the same version of MS Office you had before you upgraded could help. Also try this URL

    Enjoy!
