    VB issue

    When I open up VB6, and go to the tab marked Recent, there are never any files visible. Is this due to a bad install or is there a preferance setting somewhere I missed?

    Do you often have more then one VB IDE open at one time?

    No. This is something that happens everytime I start VB.

    I don't think it has anything to do with the number of IDE's opened - my bet would be an installation problem - it supposed to automatically give you the most recent files you worked. Try re-installing it - it's only 5 minutes of your preccccious time
    My software doesn't have bugs, It has undocumented features!

    check the registry path:

    Code:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Visual Basic\6.0\RecentFiles
    are their any entries?
    Tips:
    • Google is your friend! Search before posting!
    • Name your thread appropriately... "I Need Help" doesn't cut it!
    • Always post your code!!!! We can't read your mind!!! (well, at least most of us!)
    • Allways Include the Name and Line of the Exception (if one is occuring!)
    • If it is relevant state the version of Visual Studio/.Net Framwork you are using (2002/2003/2005)

    I have no entries there yet I see recent files. That's not right either. *comes back 10 mins later* OK I re-installed it and now I have entries in the registry and in the Recent tab. So try reinstalling it.

    OK, I'll check that out.

    To add to my problems, everytime I exit VB, I get an application error.

    "The instruction at "0x0049b48e" referenced memory at "0x608af85c". The memory could not be "read".

    Click on OK to termintate the program
    Click on CANCEL to debug the program

    Holy crap! I get that one all the time. And it seems to attach to my apps to. So if I compile an exe and then close VB I get that error. So then I don't mind it and I open my app and my app says the same thing when you exit it. But I figured out why in some other thread. Soooo hopefully re-installing it will fix that too. Although I was complaining about Norton Utilities in another thread, I did find that if you run that, VB usually works fine.

    This error means a part of your RAM couldn't be read.

    Your ram might be bad. Go on google and looking for a ram testing program and test your ram.

    Hmm... I don't think my RAM is bad 'cause I only have this error message with VB. No other application give any error messages.
    I think I'll just re-install it and see if that doesn't clear up my issues.

    Thanks
