Compare different versions of VB6 EXE file

The most recent EXE that was built by former IT mgr is dated 11/2002. The
only code I have to edit/compile in VB6 was dated 07/2001. I cannot yet find
the IT mgr to see if he has code on home PC.

Are there any tools that I can use to convert the 2002 and 2001 EXEs
to assembly and then compare the two files for differences?
The EXE is a custom screen in our accounting package. If I make
changes to the 7/2001 code, I am not sure how far back I will push
functionality. If the changes are mainly cosmetic, I think I could
update 7/2001 code. But, if there are more subroutines, I would like to
use them in my code. Oh, how I wish I had found his latest code....

I feel I am out of luck, but I am curious if there are tools available
to me.

I would love to be able to decompile the EXE, but that is probably out
of the question.
