    I run a copy of VB5 SP3 on a Win 98 machine and an NT4 workstation.

    It runs great on Win 98 but on WinNT I get lots error messages about can't display view or something - mainly when you go to Add Components.

    Is this a recognised problem??

    Sorry
    I run VB5 SP3 on a NT4 SP5 workstation and it runs without any problem, well not quite true. I get a visit from DR Watson occationally, some days several times and other days non. I don't know if its NT's fault or if its my program that tries to communicate with the com-port that does work well.

    Do you have any SP for NT?
