yes I have followed your work for some time now RACE is very nice and handy

so is vbReformer, and many others all have their merits.

I find PEexplorer to be somewhat handy also....

I have a few VB6 programs that were compiled to native code, and a few compiled to P-code, however they are also not reconized as Visual Basic programs ... I think due to the headders and such being stripped .... I can say that these programs that I've been investigating have not been protected with any third party protection schemes, and I have had some luck by using HexWorkshop to re-build information so they can be reconized by programs such as RACE and VBReformer, but it has been very slow going for me

I know these programs will never be de-compiled to exact source, but I have been able to modify code within them to suit my needs just fine, and by tracing the subroutines, has given me an insight to be able to write my own code to replace what I cannot get source for

SmartCheck is fantastic ...
