I have made a program to enable you to easily delete recent VB6 projects
without having to go into the registry and fiddle around with renumbering
all the shortcuts etc
You need to compile it as it wont work if an instance of VB is running.
Thanks to all the people on here whose code I have copied/modified
in order to make this work! :)
NEW VERSION AVAILABLE

you can possibly post this in the visual basic code bank too...
And you can consider making it as add-in to integrate with the IDE . Just a thought ...:)
Would you like me to move the thread to the CodeBank?
Sure! Move it to the codebank.
I think I will have to read/copy a few more posts before I make it an addin though.
Ive never done anything like that before.
Feel free to modify it if you know how to integrate with the IDE
how can u make it an addin for vb when it requires that vb isnt running?
It will need modifying and not be a straight conversion.
The reason it requires that VB isn't running at present is that VB writes
to the registry as well and it screws the numbering up.
I was lazy and found it easier to put the check for VB running in rather
that figure out how to get around the problem above :D

well agmorgan i could make it an addin lickety split if u fix said problem
Hmm, I've searched around a bit, but the only things I could find were apps that used timers to check the registry.
Not ideal.. :(
Updated version with a few extra features
e.g. do the projects still exist?
automatically remove missing files
