Debugging vb6 from ASP.NET



Hello,

I've found a few references on how to debug vb6 code from within the
VS.NET ide.

e.g.

http://blogs.msdn.com/robgruen/archive/2004/11/09/254602.aspx

The problem is that I'm calling my vb6 dll from ASP.NET, so I have a
solution, but no project.

which means that I cannot:

2. Open your .NET project in VS.NET.
3. Go to the project properties and select the "Configuration
Properties->Debugging" property page and enable unmanaged debugging.

For VB.NET projects this option is "Unmanaged code debugging" and
for C# is "enable unmanaged debugging."

I have done step 3 and 5, but I don't see any "Debug Symbols Files" in
VS.NET 2005

4 Select the property page for the solution.
5 Add to the "Debug Source Files" an entry that points to the path
where the source code is for the VB6 component.
6 Add to the "Debug Symbols Files" an entry that points to the folder
where the .PDB file is that was generated in step 1.

Has anyone been able to get it to work from VS.NET 2005?

-Eric
