I Decompile Dodi's Discompiler, correct some decompiling error. And in current state the sources can be recompiled and recompiled version can do correct decompilation, but it lost all global integer constant in main.txt file. And i can't understand why this happens and how to repair this effect. I suspect, that dodi's decompiler losts some potions of code in case statement. I will try to recover this bug in future, but i am not a great specialist in VB.

If anybody is interested in this version of sources, i can post it here

Please do. Maybe that would be a nice incentive to start studying VB.

A what try VBPARSER?Isn't though in English - but here never mind

I am stupid! VBDIS does 3 or more passes when decompiling programm. Temporary data between passes writes to the files exe_name.module_nummer. after each pass this file was modified. But in first pass this file was not deleted and when we do decompilation in not empty directory (where these files already exists) then decompiler uses this file and not regenerate its. In this case it lost some constants and have several other problems.

I do really compileable sources. they can be compiled with VB3 and they can decompile VB programs with the same results that original dodis file. Additionally I remove the 'inheritance effect' when decompiling in not empty directory

see an attached file

PS. I have some problems with attaching the file via slow modem connection. now it will be OK (i hope)

Thanks a lot! By the way, have you tried compiling the sources with VB6?
