I have an old project in VB 5 that I can't find a compiled version. Will the current version of VB be able to open it? If not, how far back would I need to go?
Thanks, BigBass | | BigBass Friday, July 25, 2008 10:56 AM | You can't even tell me if the current product can open a VB5 project or not? Hi,
Yes it will, it just may not run, straight away after conversion.
You may have to tinker with the code a little to get it to run, it depends on how complex the code is and what commands it uses.

Hi,
VB5, VB6 and all versions of Visual Basic prior to VB6 are not supported in this forum sorry.
This forum is for VB.Net questions only, sorry.
The current versionbeing 2008 VB.Net ( internal MAJOR version number is 9 or VB9 ) will try to convert the code but it might not run straight away.
