Converting an app from v -9 to v -2000

Hi |
I've just converted an Acc. app to v -2000.
When compiling, the references claims that a component
is missing. The component is VB6EXT.OLB which probably
belongs to Visual Studio.
I can however not find a 2000-version.
Question:
Can I use the -97 version as it is, or is there a v-2000 one, or are there components replacing it f.x. VBEExt1.OLB
?

Hi mr MacRena!
As I said, I about to convert an app from -97 to -2000.
On my own PC I have an app -2000. Looking into the
reference-list "Microsoft visual basic application extesibility" I see a path down below pointing to the
object in uestion. However, the path is to long to be
fully seen, s? I can't figure out what the objectname is.
If You can see it in Yor system, could You kindly send
me the name ?. If it is an .OLB, it is uneccesary tu
register, if it is a .dll then it might be.

Ok.
In some cases the system (References) is *screaming'
for .... Extensibility 6.0.
What it really means, is Extensibility 5.3.

Then it works

Hello skyberg,
I see that you replied on 8/21 - I didn't get an email so I'm sorry I didn't reply at that time.
I'm glad you figured it out. Thanks for the points. I wish there was a way to keep track of EE questions that we have posted in so we can check back a week later. Then I would have seen your post.
