Installed SP5 and now VB6 crashes!!!!

I wasn't having this problem before and I didn't even have any of the 5 Service Packs. Well i started noticing a bug in SSTab and figured it was a good time to install the service pack. I installed SP5 and now when I try to instantiate an object.


Dim oAccess as Access

set oAccess = '..this is when it crashes, after I type the equal sign



any idea? can I uninstall this service pack?

Thanks,

You can't uninstall the service pack. You can uninstall VB6 and then
reinstall it. But if completely installed, SP5 fixes so many problems that I
can't imagine why anyone wouldn't want it. Have you tried reinstalling
the service pack? Is it any object, or this Access one? What reference
did you set to use 'Access'?

Thinker,


I've never had this problem before and I don't think it's a coincidence that it starts happening right after I installed SP5. I did reinstall the service pack, this time I downloaded the service pack for all of visual studio 6.

It doesn't matter what I try instantiating. It happens when I type "set anything =" exactly after typing the equals sign I receive a debug error, the error box that normally occurs when an application crashes in WinXP Pro. "Do you want to send the error, debug, don't send.."

IT DOES HAPPEN WHEN I HAVE MICROSOFT ACCESS 11.0 LIBRARY REFERENCED.

Not sure why this started happening but I need it.

Since Access XP is 10, I assume 11 is the 2003 beta? If that is the case
there probably isn't anything you can do about it (except go back to a
release version of Access). WinXP, VB6 with SP5 and Access 10 work
just great together.
