Importing a VB6 project
« on: May 21, 2008, 01:18:58 pm »
I wish to import a VB6 project but I have notieced that I can only import .cls and .frm which is a problem. The project has many .bas (class modules) files as well.

How can I overcome this so that .bas will be imported?
Can EA draw relationship diagrams of modules from a VB6 project?

Also, it would be nice to import .vbp so can someone explain why .vbp cannot be imported please?

Regards

".vbp" files are project files, not source files.  ".bas" files can be imported by EA 7.1.  In Tools | Options, try setting the Import File Extensions setting for Visual Basic to ".cls;.frm;.ctl;.bas;".  See Visual Basic Options.

The only way to synchronize with a project file is by using something like our MDG Link Add-Ins (E.g. MDG Link for Visual Studio).  Unfortunately though there is no MDG Add-In for VB6 projects.
