    VB6 and VB.Net

    I want to do a trial run with a VB6 project in VB.NET. I don't even want it to convert it to .NET (at first). I just want to compile and run just like I was in VB6. Is this possible.

    Also, I have heard that there are problems running Visual Studio 6 and Visual Studio.NET on the same box. Is this true. If so, what are the problems and do they effect the VS6 or the .NET.

    Thanks

    Then compile and run it under VB6. You dont run a VB6 app under .NET.

    Also, I have heard that there are problems running Visual Studio 6 and Visual Studio.NET on the same box. Is this true. If so, what are the problems and do they effect the VS6 or the .NET.
    Never heared of any problems. Everyone here has had no issues.

    You mis-understand. Can a project compiled with VB.NET run standalone (without the .NET Framework) as it would if it were compiled under VB6. I want to move this app in steps. Not as one conglomeration.

    Thanks.

    No. If the app is compiled under VB.NET, you have to have the framework for it to run. Also if you open a VB6 project in VB.NET, its gonna get converted.
