As DM pointed out, I should be using some of the many Service Packs made available over the last 15 years for Visual Basic 6. Well, I don't believe I ever did. So, after encouragement from DataMiser on another thread, I found SP6 (VB6.0-KV290887-X86.exe) at Microsoft. I downloaded it, created a directory into which to 'load' it. I created a file in that directory called vbrun60sp6.exe. So, I double-clicked IT, and a File Progress box appeared (for about 3 seconds), and then disappeared. I do not see that it did anything. When I look at the Help on VB6, I do not see any references to and Service Pack being installed, and the Version # (on that help about) remains 8176.
Kinda need some advice here. I have tried this on both XP and Win7 computers. (I have my 1997-1998 Visual Studio 6.0 original disks).
