VB6 "addins" are the way to go to execute custom code integrated to the IDE and handle many mundane tasks. For example, our company wrote a VB addin that does some standards checking when forms are saved. Addins have a bit of a learning curve to be properly implemented. I've had problems because I wasn't careful about properly handling the life cycle of my addin.

        Thanks. That is what I was afraid of. Of course, they wouldn't want to make it easy.;)
