I have built my app in VB5 and it runs just fine, it also compiles to an exe without complaining, but when I run the exe file on its own I get a Run Time error 13, Type Mismatch. Is there an option I can change in VB so that it will highlight these errors in the VB environment instead of having to compile it to an exe and then wonder which part it has stopped at?

Type:


at the top of your files.

Thanks, I'll try that.

Or setup an On Error routine in every module- this will narrow down the problem.

You don't get this error in the IDE when you run the program? If your error handlers are in place, you can go to Tools --> Options and click the General tab. Under the frame for "Error Trapping," select "Break on All Errors"
