Do converted VB.NET applications run under Microsoft Vista?
• Yes, with two caveats. First, a few VB.NET and Windows API methods might require you to disable User Access Control (UAC) features under Microsoft Vista, else the call would fail. (This action would be necessary also to run the original VB6 application under Vista.) Second, if your VB6 application uses 3rd-party ActiveX controls, the converted VB.NET application uses a wrapper for that ActiveX control and we can’t guarantee that the ActiveX control works well under Microsoft Vista. If in doubt, you should either ask the manufacturer of the ActiveX control or thoroughly test the original VB6 application under Microsoft Vista. Please notice that VB Migration Partner uses wrappers for all the ActiveX controls that come with VB6, for example DataGrid and MS Chart. Microsoft made a statement that these controls work well under Microsoft Vista.
