I forgot to note how to make use of the debug-writer. For example: Private Sub optModule_Click(Index As Integer) WriteToAppFlowDebug ("Splash.optModule(" & Index & ")")

Having trouble with a packaged version of my VB6 app. I am using Inno Setup http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php, which works well, allowing me to run my app on a Windows 7 machine without any versions of VB installed. So far so good . . . However, the debug data that gets continuously...

I found a better slider at http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=25565&lngWId=1 Seems to fill the bill, as long as one can live with no minimum value property other than the default of 0.

The link in vbforms provides a small VB app, prjSlider.vbp, that can be downloaded. This contains the new slider control, Slider.ctl, which performs well in the small app, and it can be added to my project. Note that there are now 2 "slider" controls in the ToolBox Although I can set the...

Does anyone know if there's one out there?? I found one at http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=601912, but it is flaky.

Thanx Bluejay07. Consider it done.

Thanks for this useful summary, tedsmith!!

I appreciate the distinction JoeAtWork and strongm are making and my vocabulary has been tuned up accordingly.

I don't question your depth of knowledge, strongm, but it would seem to me not possible to run a .vbp file on a machine that doesn't have VB6 installed. Much like one couldn't open a word document (.doc) without having MS Office installed. I can't say that I tried running my .vbp before I...

Great idea, Andy, but we're talking 55,000 lines of code. If the app attracts commercial backing, the problem of code language will be addressed. Right now, I am checking out whether I can as you suggest, install VB6 on a W7 machine. In spite of 2 "known compatibility issues" warnings, it...

I don't - still in development.

Andy How? Could it be as simple as installing VB6 on my Windows 7 machine? Thanks!

Thanks strongm. This must have massively inconvenienced VB6 developers and end users!

Thanks! Yes, compile. I strongly suspected this was the case, but just wanted to check with the experts. And another couple of rhetorical questions: Why didn't Microsoft make Visual Studio 2010 (or its precursors) backwards compatible with VB6? Is it possible to run VB6 apps on a Windows...

How difficult is it to convert a VB6 app so that it will run in Visual Studio 2010? Are there automatic converters?

Thanks TLowder. Will look into this as well.

Thank you, Bluejay07. I'll give these a try.

When I run the setup.exe on the XP machine on which I developed the app, all is well. What does this tell me?

I had checked. MSWINSCK.ocx is not in my Inno script. I hadn't realized that Inno Setup was unreliable. I will certainly try the PDW.

I have used the Inno Setup Compiler to create an installer for my VB6 application, which I’ve developed on an XP machine. I use the resulting setup.exe to successfully install the app on my two Windows 7 machines. However, in both cases, when I try to run the app I get the following error...
