New and annoying error message

After allowing a registry maintainance program called Registy First Aid to
do some clean-up, I'm now getting an error message when I start VB. The
error is a dialog box with the title "Data View" and the message "Invalid
Key". Anybody have any idea what this refers to? Or how I can track it
down? It doesn't seem to be causing any real problems so far, but I would
like to know what's causing it. Thanks in advance.

James,

It depends on how much of a masochist you are. I would be tempted to
re-install VB 6 and it will update the registry with the correct keys. Maybe
someone else in the group will know. You have probably already re-installed
VB anyway.
