I'm not too familiar with the VB6 stuff. But, we use a tool that builds the VB6 stuff. It updates dependencies and version numbers and such. Then, and DLLs or .vbps that are updated get committed back to the repository. I just use the Nant task to run the g7x builder.
The tool is http://www.g7x.com/ We have like version 3 of it. I see it supports .Net now.

I just set that and it updates it whenever it notices new commits. I also have NAnt and CC.NET building vb6 code and I'm curious how you are doing it, because I have just had problems building DLLs and getting the wonderful build error of permission denied. My typical solution is to reset the build to no compatibility and then build and then back to binary compatibility and build. Do you see that permission denied error using CC.NET ever?
