Re: need traceback from "has encountered an error and must close"

Thanks a bunch guys, I have the application running now using DataGridView in
place of FLexGrid. It runs a lot faster. I am now going through and
converting the other VB6 calls. Thanks again.

Jeffrey,

The Microsoft.VisualBasicCompatiblity.vb6 namespace is still suported and a
part of all current Net framework 2.0 and its full compatible versions
including 3.5. However I would nobody advice to use it. This the same as
with the Collection class in the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace although
that is an official full part of the Net framework. (Some mix the Net
framework up with the System.Net namespace, where Net is in fact a part of
the System namespace (In other words, in the System namespace are parts not
in the Microsoft namespace of Net, the latter sentence written smilling)

Hi Robert,

Can you show us the screenshot of this error message? If I remember
correctly, the FlexGrid is a VB6 COM control and is not a part of the .Net
Framework. So if the OS did not install and register the FlexGrid COM
control, the OS loader can not find the COM control. This will cause the
OS
loader error dialog pop up for failure. Since the OS loader fails the
application, our code did not have the chance to execute yet. That's why
the error dialog is not very informative.

To troubleshoot loader problem, I would recommend Process Monitor from the
link below:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx

You may take care of the file system&registry activitiy records with "Not
Found" result. If you are not familiar with using Process Monitor for
troubleshooting, I highly recommend Mark Russinovich's online tech talk
below:
"Advanced Windows Troubleshooting with Sysinternals Process Monitor"
http://www.microsoft.com/emea/itsshowtime/sessionh.aspx?videoid=346

Anyway, this is just one possible cause. If it is a runtime code error
instead of the loader time problem, I have written a blog regarding how to
get a comprehensive stack trace in production server using Windbg and
Process Explorer:
"How to debug application crash/hang in production environment?"
http://blogs.msdn.com/msdnts/archive/2006/11/24/how-to-debug-application-cra
sh-hang-in-production-environment.aspx

Finally, I agree with Cor that you'd better move to the new .Net
DataGridView control. This control is in .Net Framework, so your
application can use it without any portability issue on all OS with .Net
Framework installed.

Hope it helps.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
