I have a VB6 APP that runs fine on a W2K workstation. It is made to send a print job to a web server.

I TRY to do the same job with a Vista workstation and it doesn't work. I have made a network capture and the Vista workstation is blocking the out put of the print job to the web server. I don't know why.

The firewall is off and file sharing is on. Any ideas as to what I can check to get this working?

Thanks
Try running it in Compatibility mode...
Create a desktop shortcut to it.
Right click the shortcut and select properties and select compatibility mode.Thanks for the answer.

I am not able to do that. When I bring up the window to make the CHANGE its grayed out. Its says it can't make the change because its on a network drive.

I FOUND another way to get that done. I am going to try it and if it works I will let you know.


Thanks!
Cool !It didn't work. I got the same error about not being able to set it because it is a network program.

I did a google for something like blocked VB app on Vista. From what I saw SP1 for vista blocked a bunch of 3rd party apps.

Now if I could figure out a work around....

I am going to be doing some research about this. If I find ANYTHING out I will post it.

Thanks!
