    I have to build a OCX in VC6.0, but we have ported it to VS 2008. But its dependent libs are already build on VS2008, so whether it is possible to build the OCX on VC6.0

      The VS2008 .lib format is incompatible with the linker in VC6 - that's why you can't use a modern Windows SDK with VC6....

      Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p CodeProject MVP for 2010 - who'd'a thunk it!

        no. in general, static libs are completely incompatible between VC/VS versions. you will need to build VC6 libraries from the source itself.
