I am having problems using downloaded tutorials.
After I download the tutorials I unzip them to find I
get a error when I try to load them into vb5 learning edition. The error is "Retained is an invalid key" Cannot load the Project.
I also get another error sometimes it states that Cannot find start up sub main.
Any suggestions on how to deal with these problems.
thanks tiro

Open the *.vbp file and remove the line holding:
It's because retained is some new thing in vb6.
-
Yeah, open it with Notepad or any other textviewer.
If you get the Can't find Sub_Main error Click Project > Project Properties > and change the Startup Object
-
If it complains about anything else, then repeat for that key.
-
You could also create a new project and add the VB6 forms to the project.
-
But when you do that, you will loose the project properties...
I used notepad when i had vb5 and had that as a second command in the command context menu in explorer for vbp files.
