Hey, even if the project doesnt work, when I create and EXe from it , the EXe works. You can remove the referrence to tha manifest file int VBP file, then load the project. It s not needed for the project to work (it seems.)
I have attached the changed project file also.
Thing is, you can make the exe in many names like test1.exe, test2.exe, etc ...
But you have to have the manifest file in the same name as the exe.
like test1.exe.manifest, test2.exe.manifest, ...
Change the given manifest file's name according to the exe you create. It should work. It works for this project.
Another thing, please refer to
this Article also. It says how to get this in the VB6 IDE. download the manifest file for VB6 and copy it to the folder where VB6.exe is located.In my machine its in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98" folder. then it works in the project also. its a cool stuff. I should add it to my project also.
PS : Since I didnt want his in all y project, I did something to have two vb6 IDE's. I renamed manifest file as VB2.exe.manifest and made a copy of vb6.exe as vb62.exe.
So I have two IDEs, one with normal VB6 Look and Feel and aone with XP Style look and feel.
Cheers.
