Well, this is pretty easy to do,
Just expose your C# assembly as COM,
and it will work just fine in your VB6 code.

[singing]
But there is a part of me
that would like to tell
and thereby lie
that it is impossible..
Just to have you re-write
your entire application
- Just to rid the world of VB6 =)

But, I am happy too see you are moving in the right direction.

I agree, i would never write vbcode and i still hate it...
this is legacy code
For the time being i can't rewrite yet
But im trying to slowly a Part at a time

Well, I'll pray for you.
Anyone doing VB6 without wanting to,
deserves to have a candle lit for him/her.

But you will find that it is easy to get an
assembly to work in the COM-world.
Just a checkbox if I remember correctly.

In the meantime, you can always laugh with Verity Stobs:

Michael,

Any reason, just try the VBNet version from what is in C# the switch, maybe
that is the first start in loving VBNet.
