Hello,

Something very strange happened lately. I installed VS2005 (with sp1) to
try VB.Net. But now, when I tried to load VB6 or open a VB6 project, VS2005
install starts and is is very difficult to close it down. If I can close it
VB6 crashes. What's going on? Please help. I reinstalled VB6 but the problem
still
persists.

Athena,

By the default when you have Visual Studio 2005 installed, opening a VBP
file will attempting to load the file within Visual Studio 2005, and most
likely prompt the conversion wizard.

Try right-clicking on the project file and specifying VB6 as the opening
app.

Hope this helps,
