Migrating AddIn from VB6 to VB2005
 
I'm trying to migrate an AddIn from VB6 to VB2005 which uses the
Redemption reference. The AddIn consists of a button on the main toolbar of
Outlook2003 which access a customized form to entry some information
regarding e-mails to a database. I tried the Migration Wizard, but it
didn't solved the problem well.

I also need to copy many forms from VB6. Is there any way to migrate
them as well? Thank you very much for your attention.

Migration usually leaves you with as much to convert manually as was
actually converted. For forms I'd just copy them as closely as possible, I
don't know of any ways to convert a VB6 form into a Windows form
automatically.

You could also try posting in a VB.NET group where you might find more
specialized knowledge of specific conversion issues than here in an Outlook
group.
