VB6 control in VB.NET -- vb.net upgrade

vb.net upgrade : VB6 control in VB.NET

Hi,

I ran the Upgrade Wizard to upgrade my VB6 project to VB2005 Express
Edition.
I got 140 errors and 170 warnings.

One of the error was that it wouldn't load a VB6 control.

(In VB6, if it can't load a control, VB6 will replace it with a PictureBox.)

But VB2005 didn't do that. It wouldn't even let me display the form at all
to delete that control.

Any idea how to display the design view to replace that control?

Thanks!

Hi,

I don't know of any way to do this, except to edit it in VB6, either to
delete the problem control, or to replace it with another control (like a
picturebox), the to save the edited project.

Hi,

Guys from the vb group told me that there was a file Form1.Designer.vb.
I could open that file and change the control there.
It works!!!
