Windows Vista Rumour

Is it true that no VB6.0 apps will work in windows Vista - as it will only allow programmes using the .NET framework?

I hope this is only a rumour based on myth but can anyone confirm either way?

I am not sure if the rumour is true or not, but I can test it, just need to find a spare machine.

How???? Have you got a BETA?

I'm pretty sure that rumor is not true. I'll see if i can find a link.

I dont believe its true either. I should be getting my copy of Vista this week :D

Moved from Classic VB forum.

I already tried this a few months ago on Vista, and the VB6 apps ran perfectly well. They even crashed occasionally as all VB6 apps normally do. :afrog:

Consistency is the hallmark of all great development platforms.

My VB6 apps ran fine in Vista too. I run Vista beta under VM Workstation 5, btw. Just so you know, Vista is horrible btw. :(
