    So vb doesn't have any toolbars or menus at all? Try pressing alt to see if they are just hidden for some reason.

    Maybe you should reinstall it and see if anything changes
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    You will need to explicitly uninstall before you reinstall, because if you don't and the reinstall finds files that are newer (because they've been damaged), they won't be replaced.

    Thumbs down Yeap its rooted

    Uninstall vb re-install from cd. Ok we got something similar a while bac, and even our gurus couldn't get it back up correctly. Ours was due to third party controls dicing up the windows\system area, currently our sysop is going through them one by one to discover which one caused this.

    Before uninstall/reinstall reboot the computer and see if that will fix it.

    Something similar happened to me before. My VB screen turns black and a lot of different commands wont work. But it fixed when I rebooted my computer.
