Old VB3 Program decompilation & port to VB.Net
I wrote a program back in 1995 using VB3.0. Subsequently, the original source was stolen along with a notebook.
I was able to get the executable, as it was uploaded to several software repositories. I managed to find a program called VBDis which decompiled and recreated the .frm, .mak, etc files. Recently, I was able to get a copy of VB4 and thought to try and open the old project without success. What I'd like to do is somehow salvage the .frm which contains the original interface and bitmap images and port the old program to Visual Studio .Net 2003. So my question is: Any suggestions as to what I might try next? P.S. Hello everybody! |

Actually, that is the same program I used. I referred to it mistakenly as VBDis.
I used it to recreate the VB3 "pseudo source" files. I say that because VB4 was not able to open them. VB4 being the successor to VB3 should have been able to open a prior version. To be more specific, VBDecomp recreated: <prog>.1 <prog>.2 <prog>.3 <prog>.frm <prog>.mak <prog>.bas And a few others.... Appreciate your responses! |

I think you must get VB 4 16 bit and not 32 bit to open old VB 3 project without problem

I wasn't aware there were two different version of VB4. I'll give that a try as soon as I can locate it.
