    Question Working with VB6 projects?

    I can't edit VB6 projects, with my version of VB.NET (Standard).

    I was wondering if it is better (and cheaper) to upgrade to a full version of VS or acquire VB6 studio.

    Can I have both VB6 and VB.NET installed on the same system?

    Or is there a freeware/open-source/etc. VB6 Compiler that gives me a little functionality, so I can make simple changes and recompile?

    thanks,
    -Shurijo

    VS.NET wont edit VB6 Projects either (unless you convert them to .NET). But there is no trouble running VB6 and .NET on the same machine.

    Yes because you need those to meet the system requirements for .NET's IDE, which he already has installed so he must meet those requirements.
