I have a VB6 project that I need to encapsulate in a merge module. The VS.NET setup is the only app I have that provides that functionality. Can I use it even though my VB6 project contains no .NET elements whatsoever?
 
From what I've found, you can use VS.NET to create a Merge Module for your VB6 app, but the downside is that VS.NET is going to insist on "upgrading" your VB6 program to a .NET one.

You'd probably be a lot better off to use something like Install Shield Developer to create your merge modules for your older programs.
