Hello All,
I recently bought a new computer with Vista installed. When I installed my VB6 Enterprise I had to also had to reinstall SP6 patch. That was expected since one needs to keep up with these things. VB6 runs OK but when I go to close down VB6 I get the message that Visual Basic has stopped working and that Windows will get back to me with a solution. That never happens.
Anyone have a solution to this
Thank you

Have you did Windows Update on your computer?
Were there any error on installation of VB6?
I get the same thing from time to time also. I've got VB6 installed on a Vista machine also, but what i did was un-install VB6, installed all my windows updates then re-installed VB6 and now everything works fine...
I would suggest giving that a try and if it still doesn't work there's got to be some kind of compatability issue.
Just another reason i'm in the process of learning .NET :-P
A wise choice, especially if you are moving to Vista.Quote:

Yes and No
No, in the way that you can still write pretty much the same code for simple applications in VB.NET
Yes as it is totally OOP (including decent cionstructors and all inhetretence)and much more powerfull, not only in multi threading
but also in on the fly investigation of unknown assembly's or even generating executible's or assembly's on the Fly.
To harvest this power you do need to learn about OOP and perhaps even Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP)
