I'm trying to create an Install CD so that my VB6 app can run on Vista. &nbsp;When I try to run the app I get a run time error '75'.<br />
I conclude that this is a Vista UAC issue...<br />
What is the work around/solution?<br />
I don't want to have users right click and select Run As.<br />
Is this an issue with VB.net as well?

Can't run VB6 app on Vista

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
