  3. Re: [RESOLVED] Trying to make an app portable using SxS but ending up with an entry i

    Just one bit of weirdness to report which someone might be able to cast light on.

    In compiled vb6 apps timer events still fire when a msgbox is displayed, it's only when running in debug mode that they don't.
