Visual Basic 6 Error
My vb6 program suddenly would not load.
Keeps giving two errors.
First: Retained=0 suddenly I have a error with this file reference in vbp loading. checked my backups from even a year ago and my vbp files always had it. I REMOVED IT!
Second:
MultiUse = -1 gives a error message - Compile error: Invalid outside procedure
THESE ERROR ONLY HAPPEN IF I LOAD THE PROJECT BY CLICKING THE VBP FILE.
If I open vb6 first, then go to existing files and load its works. Any idea what happened and how to fix short of reinstalling vb6, Thank You

Looking at a backup, Option Explicit was the top instruction. Do not know how the top section got there, so I'm commenting it out.
Retained =0 problem- when I click on the vbp file it by default is opening VB5 and was giving the Retained error. Tried renaming DevSTudio folder and pointing vbp file to VB6, but it will not take. Keeps loading it in Notepad even with me telling it VB6.exe for some reason. Just going to load VB6 first to make sure I'm in the newest version. Any last comments appreciated, Thanks
