Hi All

My 'Make myprogram.exe' is inactive! can you help me with this? The Software is a fully Visual Basic 6 professional! so i think it should be working and its not the first time i made an .exe!


Thanks

Are you trying to make the exe while your program is running in debug mode? If so you must stop the program from running prior to making the exe.

I had a similar problem once with my copy of VB. I can't remember what I did to fix it, but I suspect I had to re-install VB and service packs...

However, if you are desperate to create an exe, you can compile from the command line using the VB6.exe and releavnt command line arguments.

Take Care

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

Thanks both! i'll go with the re-installation i think!

Just curious, if you start a new project then go to the file menu, is Make Project1.exe enabled?

No!

The simple way is

Click on View | Toolbars | Customize

and click reset button few times and the make Menu would be active
