Does *anything* work correctly on Vista? <g>

See this old(ish) post. If there any problems, they're won't be with VB,
they'll be Vista's problems. The "64 bit" part shouldn't be an issue.

...also, there's a group called 'microsoft.public.vb.vista.compatibility'
that may come in handy.

Let us know, will ya?  Worst case, you can probably run it in an XP VM.

¤ I have been using VB6 on my 32 bit Win XP PC for several years.  I

¤ Vista?

Yes, it will run in WoW64 which is the 32-bit Windows subsystem.

Hello Jim

I don`t know about Vista 64  but at my previous employer i worked with VB6
on a Windows 2003 X64 machine without anny problems
so i guess that the 64 bit part will not be the problem :-) .
