    VB6 compiler 64bit

    Hello to everyone,
    there is a way to compile the vb6 app on 64bit instead of 32bit?

    I know that vb6 is built only for 32bit but you never know.
    I think is better to ask you.

    Is there a special reason for compiling to 64bit?
    Don't forget all components you used are also 32bit

    If you are in a hurry then rewrite it in VB.Net

    I don't think his comment meant he was in a hurry. The impression I got was it being more along the lines of "I can't wait for this new song to drop". Basically he is excited about it.

    C++ programmers will dismiss you as a cretinous simpleton for your inability to keep track of pointers chained 6 levels deep and Java programmers will pillory you for buying into the evils of Microsoft. Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter

    There's just no reason to use garbage like InputBox. - jmcilhinney

    then just to notice: It's nothing really faster (except he can address more memory)
