I have to develop an application in VB 6.0 and have VS.net 2003. I was hoping
to use VS.net 2003 to develop the application and then compile it in VB 6.0.
How is this possible?

In dreams, perhaps? i.e. no - The language was mangled from VB6 to .NOT.
You'll need to get hold of a copy of Visual Studio 6 or VB6, your best bet would probably be something like EBay.
Good luck,

It isn't. They are *very* different languages.

Adding to other replies.... I can't imaging why you'd want to do that. What
a nightmare VS2003's IDE is.
