Hi Everyone,
I know that this subject has been done to death on news groups and there are forum posts for Africa - but I wanted the option of you experts on stack overflow :)
Our VB6 app occasionally just vanishes while the user is doing things and doesn't give any sort of error nor is it in the PC's error log!
I was wondering if anyone has heard of this before on VB6 and what you did to fix it?
I thought perhaps changing all the code from native code to pcode might offer greater stability?
Extra info:
- We're using Mdac 2.8
- True DB Grid 6.0e
Notes added in edits:
- Our Application is very large with 113 separate components and 120MB compiled size (that's with no embedded pictures or anything)
- Our presentation layer creates the objects on the fly so everything is late bound.
- I don't really care about the local performance of the VB6 app since it doesn't really do any serious processing as far as I can see so the performance is completely bottlenecked by our Oracle Database in the data centre 80 miles from 300 users - nightmare!
