I am trying to open a visual basic project, where on selecting the project file I am getting an error message saying :

'C:\Evis_CurrentVersion_new\adm_tn.ocx' could not be loaded -- Continue loading project?

C:\Evis_CurrentVersion_new is the name of the folder.

On viewing the log file I found the below error :

Line 31: Class MSComctlLib.ImageList of control ilsPictureManager was not a loaded control class.

Can anyone please help me, how to resolve this error?

What I have tried:

Registered the MSCOMCTL.OCX, but still the issue persists.

Solution 1

Check you are using the right version of Visual Studio to open the project: VB6 support died with VS2005, and was replaced with VB for .NET - which is not the same thing. If you want to open your VB6 project as a VB6 project, you need to use VS2005 or earlier.
