Hi Jim, That was definately not my point. there is allot of older software that still runs on Windows Vista, but some of them have issues, and you have to tinker with it to make them run. Though, there are going to be future issues with VB 6 applications and earlier just because the fact Microsoft has stated they are going to be dropping support for them in 2008. It still may be possible to run them by installing the VB 6 runtimes, insuring some support that way, but it is not going to be as clear cut or officially supported. As I recall you have on your web site you have a copy of the VB 6 runtime. That will only become a serious issue when they are no longer compatible with the os, and they are still compatible with Vista, but just won't be officially supported. We could get into the advantages/disadvantages of still developing with VB 6,but I won't. Most folks know my opinions already, and know I don't think continued development in VB 6 is realistic when VB.Net has much much more to offer a developer. Cheers.
