The extension adds the VB-CLASSIC menu item to the development environment; this menu allows us to load
classic VB workspace- and project-files and offers quick access to the extension´s options. This is not a converter Tags
nor another VB6 upgrade wizard. The import tool creates a new solution and MSBuild compatible projects. The class
project system synchronizes all changes made to a project with the corresponding VBP file; this allows us to use
this toolset in parallel with the Visual Basic 6 IDE. Edito

The package registers a new language service supporting Visual Basic 6 projects and code files. It integrates with
the solution explorer and the code editor having support for syntax highlighting, basic outlining (allows to
expand/collapse methods, properties, and types) as well as navigation bar support. Releas

Project Properties Designer
The project properties designer works directly on VBP files (MSBuild project files have only been introduced due
to compatibility issues). The current version allows us to display and edit a subset of classic VBP project settings
(will probably be extended in future versions).
New: Symbol Browsing (Object Browser, Class View)
The latest version registers loaded VB6 projects with the Object Manager. Classes, Types, Modules, Forms, and
Controls can be inspected using the Object Browser and Class View.

Visual Basic Tools for Visual Studio is a language service extension for Visual Studio 2012
and 2013 allowing us to work on classic Visual Basic projects within Visual Studio. Its
intention is to provide better development tools for teams that have to maintain legacy code
or working on migration projects. Right now the toolset is still under development and some
valuable features are not available yet, but it could already worth it to try.
This is pre-release software that is not intended to be used in a live operating
environment. The software is licensed "as-is" and you bear the risk of using it.
