I'm sorry for cross posting this, not sure where it belongs.

My Upgrade Wizard only states "Upgrade failed" and produces a log file I
can't interpret.
Could this be because of the sourcesafe?

I've got VS2005 Team Edition for Developers and rights to our tfs,
but I don't have VB6, VB6 runtime or SourceSafe.

Grateful for any tip! /k

This one only posted to m.p.languages.vb.upgrade
(multipost?)

Don't know if it helps, but the project _must_ be compilable in VB6 on
the machine where you use the wizard. If it's not compilable, for
example due to missing references, it is impossible for the wizard to do
the upgrade. Maybe that's the reason. Or maybe due to Sourcesafe; don't
know without knowing the message.

The message was only "Upgrade failed".
But it sounds like I need VB6 on the machine - so I can check that it
compiles.
Thanks!
