How to install VB6 Professional
by Karsten Pedersen on Monday April 9th 2007, 21:22
Run winecfg
Set OS to Windows 98
Add ole32=native to the libraries section
Run dcom98/dcom98.exe
Run wineboot
Run winecfg
Add *=native,builtin to the libraries section
Run vb6setup.exe
Follow onscreen prompts
When installed, instead of clicking reboot, click exit
A wineboot will happen automatically
The service pack works perfectly so once that is applied.. Your all done!
