Where do you think you are ? This is a message board, not a chat here. So be patient!

Now for your question, there's no automatic or magic way to migrate from VC6 to a more recent version. What you have to do is open your VC6 workspace with VS2005, then a conversion wizard will appear asking you if you want to convert the project. This only converts the project files, not the source files. Once the conversion is done, you'll need to compile and check if everything is ok. If you have errors, well you need to fix them and recompile. And if other errors appear, you have to repeat the operation Smile | :) .

One of the most frequent source of error coming from that kind of migration, is the support for UNICODE. By default in vc6 it is disabled but for more recent IDE, it is enabled. It means that if you used char instead of TCHAR in your code, you'll end up with a lot of errors. I suggest you read this article[^] if you want more information (you could also disable UNICODE support in your project options).

Good luck.
