I had no issues what so ever. What are the problems you experience?

Sir,

I am not on the machine with win 7 but I remember it shows some .dll issues.

I will post all the errors when I m on that machine.

Thanks..

As this is not a coding question regarding how to use VB6 programming I am moving this thread to General Developer.

Hello.
I had no problems during installation. But some problems appeared later:

1) In Project > Components > Controls Tab was impossible include "Microsoft Windows Common Contrlols 6.0 (mscomctl.ocx).
Error message: 0x8002801C - "The file mscomctl.ocx was not registerable as an ActiveX Component"

2) In Project > References, well, I can't open this window.

Solution: I don't know. Installed on Windows XP only.
If someone knows how to solve these problems, please post a solution.
Thanks.

Or you could simply post your questions, kind of what support forums are about don't you think?

If it's a search and find situation then the member might as well hit google and find a tutorial instead of posting.

I didn't think about that.
