I have a project of Visual Basic 6.0, in that I have some code changes. for that I need Old Visual Basic 6.0 IDE that I don't have.

So anybody can me tell me that,

Is that possible to compile that VB 6.0 code in Visual Studio 2010 and later and how.

Or Where i can get the Visual Basic 6.0 IDE Setup and that i can install in Windows 7 OS.

Thanks in Advance.

    No, you can't compile VB6 projects in Visual Studio 2010 – Steve Mar 16 '15 at 11:45

    You need a retail version of VB6 to compile. EBay. – Alex K. Mar 16 '15 at 11:46

    The VB6 IDE is available through an MSDN subscription. – Hans Passant Mar 16 '15 at 11:51

    You could also ask around with colleagues/consultants. Someone may have a copy installed on an old machine. Note that you will also need licensed copies of any and all custom controls. There were (very, very) many available and it was very common for any non-trivial app to use one or two. – Ňɏssa Pøngjǣrdenlarp Mar 16 '15 at 12:29

For installing in Windows 7 you may need to follow the instructions in this website
