Michael,

I have Vista Ultimate edition on my notebook and I have VS2005 and VS2008
installed on it as well as VB6 and MS Office 2007...

I have done VB6 and VS2005 development on it and it worked well, activeX
dlls get registered etc.

Maybe you have issues you mentioned because of Vista running as a Virtiual
PC?

Me again...

I have a Virtual PC with Vista installed on my old pc and found
developing on it pretty annoying
with VS2005.  I also ran into big problems with my legacy VB6 apps that
I still support.
IIRC I could not find a way to regsvr32 controls and dll's which made
VB6 dev impossible and I gave up.
Has anything changed?
Is Vista an option for Dev work or should I just stick with XP?

Sorry if this is OT.

cheers

Michael M
