Hi all,
The brief story is that on my system building any VB6 application from the command line or through Visual Build Pro worked like a champ. About a month ago or so, in an attempt to trace down a bug, which wound up being with a faulty ActiveX control from a vendor, I uninstalled and then reinstalled Visual Studio 6.0. After I reinstalled and applied the service pack 6, building from the command line fails, but works great from the IDE. I did verify that the VB6 path is in the main path variable and even tried building from that folder, but it still crashes.
My recent test was to create a new VB6 standard EXE project with one button on the form, which unloads the form and as such closes the application. That has got to be the world's simplest VB6 application ever built and that crashes as does every other project that I tried, which leads me to think that the problem is somehow system related.
What can be the cause?
Thanks in advance,
Sarah
