Crash during compileOkay folks...I'm stumped.
When compiling my project (doesn't matter which one) during the "writing exe" step, VB itself just shuts off. No error messages, no nothing. An untrapped GPF would be my guess. I've disabled all add-ins, run registry cleaners, changed from native code to p-code, it makes no difference. I've tried various projects including from scratch projects, it literally makes no difference. I have SP6 with the common control updates, running on XP SP3. No updates were applied between last night (when I could compile successfully) and this afternoon. I tried restarting the computer, no luck. The only thing I've yet to do is reinstall VB6 itself. Any advice? Anyone ever heard of something like this? Thanks! - Kev

But I did not uninstall first. That's the next step. what helped finally was, to define a new empty project, define new empty copies of all code- modules and copy only the "Text" over into the new ones (and of course replicate all your other projects "environmental settings"). Thank god, mine was only a Dll-Project with ca. 10 modules - but it was compiling again after that. Don't know what was causing that - maybe some "dead" *.Obj-Files hanging around somewhere in a hidden Temp-Dir or something like that.

Would you share the file location just for the note book, you never know when this could be useful.

No error messages, no nothing doesn't work you might try running Filemon to see what's happening at that point.
