NO. That is called reverse engineering and it would not be fair to other developers. Anything that does what you are asking is illegal and probably not 100%. If you are trying to get code from a project you did then you should have backed it up because it is now lost.

This is, of course, assuming Visual Basic 6. if you are talking maybe VB3 then there might be more options.

There are de-assemblers. If you have any experience in assembly, and can easily read lines and lines and lines of complete jiberish, google "dasm." You'll get several links to freeware programs.

This doesn't dissassemble VB exe's but it's a debugger, like SoftIce. Look for "NuMeGa SmartCheck" (goodluck, a trial is hard to find).

You can use that to debug vb program's at runtime, I think that's the closest youll get in vb6, theyre aren't really any "good" 'exe2vb' proggie's, if any. If your fluent in asm then you should look for "Win32dasm", but it's a bit confusing if you aren't good with asm. Instead of learning asm and trying to reverse the code you can just rewrite the source
