VB6 is dead

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Hi All.

My vb6 app is huge, and is so full of the Codejock controls, which really do make it look so cool, that converting it to dotnet is not possible, the time involved would be years.

So my question is what happens if MS really cause our vb6 app to fail on future OS systems.

What are your predictions for vb6 apps running on MS OS systems in the future, and where does that leave Codejock controls, if the un-thinkable were to happen!

Thanks for your input

Mark

	I sure that old tech well will work with compattable mode so I don't think you have to worry there but when making your apps you should make them in sections so you can covert each section faster, I am a Lua man my self and far as I can see there is going to be many windows hucks out there for future OS's thank god lol.
