Guyz , please help me using Visual Basic 6.0 in my OS Windows 7. I think my OS has a compatibility problem.  For example when i drag buttons to the work space, it acts in slow motion.

Can anyone with a similar problem help me ?

Good Day to you,

I heard this kind of problem, I'm not sure if I heard it last year. But don't worry, like you said, your VB 6.0 is not compatible with Windows 7. Try VB Express 2010, I think that one can do a smooth job with your OS.

Yeah right! The Windows 7 is not yet compatible in running VB 6.0. Today VB 6.0 is not very useful, I tried to use VB. net.

Yes.  But I think those applications did not match or I mean are not compatible with Windows 7. Even 64 bit, I think because those applications are not updated when compared to Windows 7.

Thank you experts! for those ideas that you gave! And beside slow motion acts in my VB 6.0, the other program has made a bug.

I'm sorry, I am just starting to learn such kind of applications.

John if you really want to use VB 6.0 you just advisable to use Windows XP OS, I am pretty sure that it would be compatible with your VB 6.0.
