this is not really a vb6 problem, but some one may have struck this before
recently the links in MSDN help for vb6 have stopped working the images do not show and nothing happens when clicked, see image
this is also the case in help for vba
i guessed it is an internet explorer thing, but have not been able to resolve
i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case. Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next
dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part
come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

Some time ago I suffer for same problem in Windows XP SP2.
After a reformatting, and installing updates, I discover that this problem was caused to a specific update of Windows Update.
Then I start to remove the updates one by one (from last update, of course), after removed I have try to see if problem still, if not I continued to remove the next update, until problem disappear.
I dont remember what is the updating, sorry.
Finally, I have stopped Windows Update service.
However, after installed XP SP3, this problem no longer appear (but Windows Update still stopped )
yeah, unfortunately i have probably had about 100 windows updates since this started, even though it was only a couple of weeks ago
i guess i will have to try to figure it out, thanks for the info
