           Summary: Visual Basic 6 IDE app wizard has multiple errors, not
                    usable
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-ole
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com


The app wizard has errors which keep it from completing.

To repeat:
1. install and run visual basic 6 IDE
2. click past "Key is not unique in collection" dialog box described in bug 4448
3. "New Project" dialog pops up.  Pick "VB Application Wizard".

4. click "next" eight times to accept default app settings
Many fixmes and one err are displayed on console.  The err is:
err:ole:typedescvt_to_variantvt cannot convert type 26 into variant VT

5. click "finish" to generate app
The two lines
fixme:ole:userdefined_to_variantvt TKIND 5 unhandled.
err:ole:typedescvt_to_variantvt cannot convert type 26 into variant VT
are diplayed on the console.  

6. Click 'OK' on the "first time, may take a minute" dialog box.
The console shows:
fixme:ole:MSFT_ReadValue BSTR length = -1?
fixme:ole:DllDebugObjectRPCHook stub
fixme:ole:userdefined_to_variantvt TKIND 5 unhandled.
err:ole:typedescvt_to_variantvt cannot convert type 26 into variant VT
and the dialog box
 "Variable uses an Automation type not supported in Visual Basic"
pops up (uh-oh).

7. Click 'OK' on the dialog.
The console shows
fixme:ole:userdefined_to_variantvt TKIND 5 unhandled.
err:ole:typedescvt_to_variantvt cannot convert type 26 into variant VT
and the dialog box
 "20:Variable uses an automation type not supported in Visual Basic.  Continue?"
pops up.

8. Click "Yes" on the dialog.  The console shows
fixme:ole:ITypeLib2_fnGetDocumentation2 (0x7d2f2790) index -1 lcid 0 half
implemented stub!
fixme:typelib2:ICreateTypeLib2_fnSetHelpContext (0x7b9bca80,200000), stub!
and the dialog box "50:Out of memory.  Continue?" pops up (uh-oh).

There's more, but it's not worth going into more detail;
the above problems are enough to make the wizard unusable.
If you keep clicking, eventually it gives up, and returns you
to the wizard-picking dialog.
