From: M Wade on 30 Mar 2010 16:55 I have lost the Project Explorer windows in VB6. I have searched the Web and found many with the same problem but have not found any answer. What did I do and how can I undo it. Thanks Marv

When you choose View | Project Explorer or hit Ctrl+R, does the IDE lose focus? (I.e., does the title bar turn the "inactive" color?) If so, the Project Explorer is still there but off the screen. Unfortunately there does not seem to be a keyoard shortcut to active a tool window's system menu or I'd have a quick solution to this type of problem. Under the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Visual Basic\6.0 are two binary values, Dock and Tool. Deleting one or both (with the IDE closed) might do the trick. I have no idea what that might screw up, though. (I will not make any intelligence-insulting registry disclaimers. If you're too dumb to work with the registry properly you're too dumb to be programming, right?)

No, don't remember it. Go to the View menu, and see what's the keyboard shortcut for "Project Explorer". |
