No, the problem is that VB6 does not compile things to CIL, it compiles them to either native x86 or P-Code. The MS.NET and Mono runtimes don't know how to run anything but CIL (or AOT'd CIL). In other words, you can't run VB6 on Mono for the same reasons you can't run an x86 app on a PPC machine. -- Chris Howie http://www.chrishowie.com http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Crazycomputers _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
