VB6 executables compiled in native code can`t be decompiled
i know there was a succesfull vb4 decompiler however i never ever saw a true
decompiler of a native compiled VB6 executable
As far as i know it doesn`t exist although lots of people claim it is out
there ,,
As a professional programmer myself i lost lots of code ( by stupidity of my
own :-) ) , however i learned that i should not waste my time in trying to
do something that is not going to work ,, okay it is hard but start from
scratch and rewrite it ,,,, it is probably done in lots of fewer units as
the original and probably a lot better

Their only programmer has recently skipped the country and did not leave
the source code or any design notes for a couple of program modules. It
appears that he did all the work for those few modules on his own laptop and
never integrated them into Visual Source Safe.
What tools, if any, exist in the VB world to disassemble / reverse
engineer these modules?
I've never done Basic on any platform to know what tools are out there
which might help.
Thanks.
