VB.NET Upgrade Wizard Hangs

 VB.NET Upgrade Wizard Hangs

As an experiment in the robustness of the upgrade wizard, I decided to
try converting my biggest VB6 project ever into .NET.  The source code
for this project (which is described at http://www.*-*-*.com/ ) is
freely available if you navigate to
http://www.*-*-*.com/

Now I had to install the binary form of this project first and do so
on a computer with VB6 installed because it uses custom controls and
VB6 controls that are not licensed with .NET.  But once I did this,
the upgrade seemed to be going well.

The problem is it seemed to hang at the end of processing a 112 KB frm
file (MapEdit.frm).  It would just indicate that it was still
processing frmMapEdit.updReplaceTile_Change and never proceed past
this point after probably more than half an hour of waiting (I wasn't
counting and I wasn't present for the whole time).

Is there any way to get around this -- submit the problem to
Microsoft, run the upgrade wizard in a more debug-type mode, get an
updated wizard, whatever?
