Using MSCOMM32.OCX in EXCEL 2007´s macro (VB6)

1 New Member
Hi,
I am new comer here.
I am develoving application on EXCEL 2007 (VISTA PLATFORM). Precisely the program is a serial port datalogger, but VB6 doesn´t allow me to paste MSComm32.ocx into the working frame even having both legally installed. The same procedure is possible when the platform is windows XP. I would appreciate any help.
Thanks

So I read about License Compiler in the MSDN.net files and it says I can create a license file by using the lc.exe application. I have tried this but am getting errors. If someone has a decent...

Hello All, I'd like your comments on the code below. The sub does exactly what I want it to do but I don't feel that it is solid as all. It seems like I'm using some VB6 code, .Net2003 code, and .Net2005 code. I'm developing in vb.net 2005. This test sub just reads an input text file, writing out records to another text file, eliminating records that have a '99' in them (it is similar to a CSV file). Some of my concerns are:
