    Issue while creating exe file

    Hello,
    I'm working in vb6. When I goto File-> Make name.exe It doesn't creates .exe and only shows compiling message. If I end task it and again start vb and again create .exe then it creates the .exe file. I don't know why its happens. Sometimes I've to end task for 3-4 times.

    One more thing it creates duplicate files when I create .exe l like if I've menuform.obj then it creates menuform1.obj next time menuform2.obj. I've Windows 7 SP1. Does anyone face this issue.? Kindly suggest the solution.

    I faced that problem once before and only because I had a hundred arrayed ImageBoxes containing heavily stretched high quality images! hopefully the VB6 package and deployment wizard can do a better job. give it a try!

    At one point the wizard will compile your project before creating a setup package for it. after the compilation is over, you can cancel the wizard.

    I would expect the same result using the PD wizard as it is calling the same compiler as the IDE does

    Well try manually patching the CAB File and then copy an older Setup.lst file and then make it like that it was made by the PD Wizard. I had to I had the very same problem, just about four months ago. I used WinZip to make the CAB file...

    You do know that that has nothing to do with making an exe.

    The poster is having a problem creating the exe not the cab file
