    All - I have an application that was written in VB 6 back in the mid-90's. I want to rewrite this app in ASP.Net, but I cannot open the project files with VS 2008. When I try to convert the files it gives me a error about an .ocx file missing that I can see in the directory? If any body could open this project and send me the forms and code that would be great or if you could point in a direction to get VB 6 since it is no longer support by MS. Thanks! sk

      The OCX file isn't registered on your dev machine. All you have to do is open the .VBP file to convert the project. Except for the .FRX files (I think!), the rest is all text files. You can open them in Notepad if you had to.

        VB6 -> ASP.NET is basically a rewrite anyhow. However, I reckon you could find VB6 on ebay.
