Not only that, but (as quite an experienced VB programmer (alas)) I have
a lot of troubles with M$ DLLs and OCXs (VB components). Whenever there
is a new version of VB, there are lots of compatibility problems. VB6
components are not compatible with VB5 components, which implies that if
a VB6 program installs its OCXs, an already installed VB5 application
won't work anymore.
