    Exclamation MS Office conflicts VB6 startup

    I've searched a couple times, didnt find anything relevant to this...

    I just installed MS Office 2007 and when i start vb6, i get an installer type box showing up and stalling VB6 startup for a couple minutes. It isn't a big problem, but damn, it bugs me.

    Office IS the cause of it, because i installed nothing before, and i was programming a bit earlier.

    Thanks in advance.

    What Rhino is suggesting is that you go into VB and change the setting for each of your add-ins so that none try to load when VB starts. Once you've done that, exit and restart VB and see what happens.

    Can you also post a snapshot of the following

    1) Snapshot of the above installer type box
    2) Project=>References
    3) Project=>Components (All 3 tabs with selected items)
    4) Tools Add-in Manager

    You can upload the snapshot in a word file and then attach the word file here. If possible attach the snapshots for both scenarios i.e before and after you install MS-Office.

    Also just curious, what OS are you using?
