Just a question on whether there is any issues with
XP SP2 or VB6.0 SP6 if I was to install either of
theses on my machine.

Thanks for any advice on this

The only real issue is SP6. There are several problems with that release.
Stick with SP5 (or load SP6 only if you experience the bugs it's supposed to
fix) and you should be fine.

dsitribute with
the latest VB runtime files. Will that make the bugs show up in other
developers apps even though
they didnt see them with SP5?

In theory <g> Don't feel too bad though because Windows and Office Update
install parts of SP6 without even letting you know. Ask those SP5 developers
to look at their components dialog at 'Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0
(SPx)" or "Microsoft Rich Textbox Control 6.0 (SPx)" and tell you what
service pack it shows. Mine says SP6.

In a "perfect world", we should be developing on the oldest OS/oldest SP we
plan to support. That way, our setup packages rarely update any shared
components on the end users system. In the real world, that's nearly
impossible.

In a "perfect world", we should be laying out our forms based on the lowest
resolution we plan to support. That way, if we resize, nothing gets
squished. In the real world, it's not as easy as it sounds. Especially since
users that have their resolution set to 1024x768 'Large Fonts' will only get
the screen real estate of a monitor set to 800x600 'Small Fonts'.
