 Help: Name conflicts with existing module, project or object library

I'm desperate with MS. Probably you can't help me but I feel better
typing this. Following: When I try to MAKE compatible ActiveX dll
component error msg pops up: "Name conflicts with existing module,
project or object library". When I break compatibility ( Project
properties - Component tab - No compatibility option) then works so it
seams to be something with compatibility although component is
compatible and running in development mode without any problems, error
msgs. or warnings.

Regards and good luck with  MS.

Firstly, if you have VB6 then try building it under VB6 - the messages are
generally more helpful. Secondly, I am not sure how to produce this error,
but similar errors happen to me when I have modified a DLL or compnent that
the project I am building references. eg.

1. DLL #1 Defines object type 'BaseObject'

2. DLL #2 Has a function or procedure that uses or returns an object of type
'BaseObject'

3. You modify DLL #1, and rebuild WITHOUT binary compatibility.

4. You try to build DLL #2 WITH compatibility.

Hope this helps.

This is a known bug in VB5 SP3 (Refer to Microsoft Knowledgebase article
Q186262).  The "Resolution" is to turn off binary compatibility.  I have not
had time to determine if this same problem exists in VB6.
