January 20th, 2000, 02:11 PM
Hello,

I am trying to migrate VB 4.0 source code to VB 6.0.
Can you point me to information on how to do this ?
Are there any migration tools for this purpose, or
can this be accomplished using VB 6.0 itself ? Is
it necessary to migrate to 5.0 before going to 6.0 ?

Also, are there any tools to migrate VB 4.0 source
code to Java ?

Thanks,
Raja

Well, I migrated from 4 to 5 without a hassle, then I converted from 5 to 6 very smoothly... don't know if you can do it directly from 4 to 6 but I believe that you'll have less trouble if you doit the way I done it.

just my opinion :)

only a few days ago I converted a vb 4 16-Bit (!) app to VB 6 by simply loading the VBP file into VB 6.
One area where problems might occur is if you use third-party controls, although we didn't experience with out 3rd party tools.
