Hey you. 8)

I don't use VB6, but I do recall in my first days of A2003 something
like this happpening.

Have you checked to see if the the backend can be opened by A2003 after
the conversion? That at least will rule out a conversion gone badly.
If it works, then hopefully the VB 6 folks here can help.
