Ah !!! My VB6 install is on Win7-32. Maybe that makes the difference.

I havent moved to 64bit yet. At work I built a new laptop with Win7-64 and still havent been able to install some 64 bit programs becuase if conflicts with other 32 bit programs that are running. We have an application that uses MSaccess 2010 DB engine and trying to install that on someone machine failed becuase they had Office 2010 - 32 bit installed.

On the laptop I built, we have Office 2007 32 Bit so I thought I would be OK with the app that used Access2010 but no "you have 32 bit office programs installed - please install the 32 bit version of this program "

So many third part programs rely on using parts of MS Office or Internet Explorer that it is just a minefield. !!!
