Solve : How to convert VB8.0 to VB6.0?

Answer»

I'm working with Visual Basic 8.0 , now I need to convert the project to Visual Basic 6.0.
Is there any software or solution that convert 8.0 files to 6.0 ?manual rewrite is probably the only way, given the huge differences.They are essentially completely different languages.

There is no easy VB6 to VB8 tool either. (unless you count the tool that makes a template and throws a bunch of TODO comments everywhere)Visual Basic 8.0 would convert the files or projects that are written in VB6.0 with telling some instructions to modify the code such as depreciation of datatype..... etc... But again writing 8.0 to 6.0 is a huge task. But i need to write. If there is any possibility please tell me. I'l wait ............

But I'l write the code into 6.0 until I get the solution........ ThannxVB 8 is object oriented. VB 6 is not. If you are any kind of programmer, that should tell you all you need to know about the nature of the task (you think) you need to undertake.
Yes i know about it. But i need to convert otherwise i have to write manual code in visual basic 6.0. It takes a lot of time and stuff so that i asked you people, if there is any tool or suggestions to convert 8.0 files to 6.0..........


If any any any...... tell me. I'm starting writing the code in 6.0Quote from: Vikram Varaprasad on October 24, 2009, 12:52:48 AM

otherwise i have to write manual code

Oh I think I grasp the nature of your problem!

This is what programmers do. Isn't it? (actually it is only part of what they do) Presuming that you wrote the program so far, and did not merely copy and paste a lot of code snippets you found on the web, glueing it together somehow, then you will have had an overview of what the program is supposed to do, a SPECIFICATION if you like, following which you proceeded to think carefully what the program flow would be like, what algorithms, etc you needed to IMPLEMENT, and then finally you fired up your IDE and typed in the code, testing as you went ALONG. It is only this final step (in many ways the most trivial) that you need to repeat.

OMG SALMON, I have never laughed so hard...

Of course you could have told him that the vb8 to vb6 convertor is readily available for anyone willing to to make SIMPLE minor changes to his original code. He will only need his logic scheme for reference. Perhaps a new manual wouldn't be a bad idea.

Still laughing...
