\n\"Visual<\/a><\/p>\n

\nGet past with your life on Windows, install Microsoft Visual Basic 6 on GNU\/Linux with some good old wine…
\n<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Install the required libs, etc.
    \n[sourcecode language=’bash’]$ winetricks ddr=gdi vb6run gecko gdiplus fontfix d3dx9 corefonts mdac_typ dcom98[\/sourcecode]<\/li>\n
  2. From a working Windows XP installation, copy over riched20.dll, riched32.dll, urlmon.dll, oleaut32.dll, and hhctrl.ocx, from the system32 folder to your wine system32 folder<\/li>\n
  3. In your Wine configuration dialog, under the Libraries tab,
    \nset the following files to native:
    \nhhctrl.ocx
    \noleaut32
    \nriched20
    \nriched32
    \nurlmon
    \nAnd set these to builtin:
    \nole32
    \nrpcrt4<\/li>\n
  4. Do a fresh install of IE6 with ies4linux<\/a>, click on Advanced and edit the downloads and the install prefix to make it totally compatible with your existing .wine directory.<\/li>\n
  5. Then run the Visual Basic 6 installer, and if everything goes well, cd to .wine\/drive_c\/windows\/system32 and execute “wine regsvr32 comcat.dll” and “wine regsvr32 MSSTDFMT.DLL”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    And your done! Have fun with Visual Basic on Linux!<\/p>\n
