Honestly, I run the VB6 IDE on Windows 7 (64bit) and it runs just fine unless you're subclassing (but it never worked well for subclassing). This concept of editing VB6 in the same IDE you write your .NET is cool, but what I'd really like to see is the VB6 VM re-written as a .NET library, or a compiler added to .NET for VB6 or they could just open source the thing, and the community would do it for them, after all what's the big secret... the code for it is over 20 years old.

Would it be possible to implement a feature that highlights or greys out code within
#if ..#else ..#endif
conditional compilation directives?

A way to remote debug vb6 code from the Visual Studio IDE

For default objects, like a form, add the standard event methods to appear in the drop down list, like FormLoad, FormUnload, Form_Resize etc. At the moment the only ones that appear are the ones already added.

In project explorer group files like Classic VB6 IDE into folders based on their type/extension like Class Modules, Forms, Modules etc.

Your current distribution method does not let us know what has changed between releases. Also I do not see an effective way to communicate with you regarding issues. I have an issue with the Build process and do not think a feature request is the best venue.

Could you provide a roadmap to give an idea of where you are looking to take the project and some sort of a time line

I think such a project should be opened source, perhaps with the support/help from Microsoft.

I think the ability to create a VBA project for Word, Excel, Access (the only difference would be the IntelliSense support for the predefined "ActiveDocument", "CurrentDb", etc) would be neat. Of course we would then need to copy and paste the code into the VBA IDE but, for me, it would still be less painful then writing the whole damn thing in the default IDE.

I use a lot of third party tools in my VB6 projects. will things like that be supported.
