Upgrade Wizard Error - The following file could not be found

I'm trying to upgrade a small program from vb6 and am getting the error "The following file could not be found: Resource file C:\Program Files\OEAPI\Demo\VB\testcom.frx Please make sure this file is present before upgrading this project".

One of the files in the project is "testcom.frm" <-- 'm' not 'x'. The is a Form=testcom.frm line in the .vbp file. There IS NOT a Form=testcom.frx in the .vbp file.

Does the Wizard derive other file names (with an 'x') from the Form= names and expect these to be present

 

TIA,

Phil

    You are correct, the frx file is an icon file referenced in testcom. frm and is was not supplied with the project that I am trying to convert.

    Thanks for your help.

    Off the top of my head, I believe the resource file information is not referenced in the .vbp (Visual Basic Project) file, but in the .frm (Form) file.

    Look through the testcom.frm file in a text editor: there may be an icon/image, etc. referencing the testcom.frx file.

    Looks like you may not have all the files for the project.
