 16bit vs 32bit

Hello, everyone:

i am try to apply a motor control demo(developed in 16bit VB4.0)in
VB6.0. whenever I re-compile and run it, I got the error that the DLL
for diver function can't be found, Actually the DLL do exist at the
Windows\system directory, so i guess it is a compatibility problem
of 16bit vs 32bit. any shared experience or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Jacob

In 32bit VB, the path and library functions names of declare statements are
case sensitive. That may be the problem.

You can't call a 16 bit Dll from 32 bit VB without some kind of
thunking layer.  You can do thunking in VB 4.0, but not in VB 6.0
