VB6 Crashes at a particular VBP step

Hi,

I am having a problem building a visual basic 6 project. I have a VBP build script setup that builds 18 or so VB6 activeX dlls. I recently added a new dll to be built by the script. Every time that step is reached vb6 crashes (windows xp comes up with an error dialog saying that visual basic has crashed, would you like to debug it).

The funny things is that I can compile it from the IDE, from the command line (vb6 /m) and I can right-click on it and choose the make option. It just doesn't seem to work from the VBP script. I am at a loss as to why this doesn't work.


Here is the version information from VBP:

Visual Build Professional 6.4
Windows Version: 5.1.2600.2.0
Install path: C:\Program Files\VisBuildPro6
SftTree_IX86_U_50.dll version 5.06
unins000.exe version 51.46.0.0
VisBuildCmd.exe version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildPro.exe version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildBld.dll version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildBurn.dll version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildCore.dll version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildDotNET.dll version 6.4.0.0
VisBuildExt.dll version 6.4.0.3
VisBuildLog.dll version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildMisc.dll version 6.4.0.3
VisBuildMS.dll version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildMS2.dll version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildNet.dll version 6.4.0.3
VisBuildSvr.dll version 6.4.0.2
VisBuildSvr.Interop.dll version 1.0.0.0
VisBuildVCS.dll version 6.4.0.4

This is the step that is causing problems:

Thanks Kinook!

It was indeed a problem with the vb code. For some strange reason, there were duplicate controls that were not in a control array. VB didn't complain about them. Once they were manually removed (i.e. using notepad on the .frm file itself) VBP compiled it properly....
