 Saving 5.0 enterprise as Visual Basic 3.0.

Hi,
    I was wondering if it is possible to save forms made in Visual Basic
5.0 as 3.0?  or is there a utility?

Thanks in advance.

there's no way to do it and id be pretty damn suprised if somebody
wasted time making such a utility.  if stuff has to
be crossplatform, do it in VB4.  granted, there's no
automated way of moving VB5 code to VB4 either (though
it can be done manually with a little work, an i suppose
this process could be automated to some degree).. but..
lord.. why do we still get people wanting to use VB3?
what possible advantage could VB3 have over VB4/16 other
than a few kbs here and there in distribution size?
(and working with some really outdated tools like
Q+E Multilink/VB)

Whippleware (http://www.whippleware.com/) has some news on their site about
an internal utility that they used to convert VB5 code to VB3.  Ben Whipple
knows more about parsing VB forms code then anyone out there.  So he may be
your best bet.

  You mean other than the fact that VB3 is orders of magnitude faster than
VB4/16, has much simpler database access, and most programs can be distruted
on one floppy?
