vb6 project compatibility question?

[ambalboa]

Hello.

I am trying to build a vb6 project, in which I can set the version number to a specific value, while having the option "project compatibility" selected, which is found on the compatibility tab. However, every time I run it, the step always fails. Now, when I select the "don't change" option, it creates the executable files, and the version number is set successfully. Actually, the other option updates the version number also, but the executible files are not created because it fails.

Maybe someone can help me understand that this option does so that I can avoid this problem.

The error states "Unable to set the version compatible component," "One or more of the properties in 'PROJECT_PATH.vbp' was bad. Some or all of the properties might not be set correctly."

I don't know much about Visual Build Pro. I would really appreciate anyone's help.

Thank you.
