Do VB6 and OFFICE coexist on your machine? Did you install VB6 first and then Office? If so, please read on:
The Visual Basic I use is 6.0 (Chinese version). It has been working fine before. Maybe it is a common characteristic of DIYers. My machine often installs many programs repeatedly (including Pwin98, which I constantly criticize but have to use). I use VB one day. When opening the project, all the Chinese character drive letters become garbled characters (Chinese character entries Directory name is displayed normally), as long as you drag the scroll bar on the right side of the "Open" dialog box, VB will exit inexplicably, but directly using the "Up" button or directly selecting the directory is normal; another symptom is adding in the form For an Image or Picture control, click the button to select the file in "Properties", and VB will also exit. It was first determined that the system or VB program files were damaged, and I reinstalled Windows 98 and VB, but the fault persisted. So Formatc:/s, reinstalled Windows98 and VB, the fault was eliminated, but after installing OFFICE97, the fault appeared again (VB and OFFICE are both Microsoft products, there is no conflict! If there is a conflict, then It’s really~:{.....). Suddenly I remembered that the previous issues of Computer News (electronic version) had articles about solving the problem of Norton AntiVirus not being able to display Chinese characters correctly. Could my own fault be related to the Chinese character drive letter and Chinese character directory name? So I wrote a text file and changed the extension. For .REG, add the following content:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/fontassoc/AssociatedCharSet]"ANSI(00)"="yes"
"SYMBOL(02)"="no"
"OEM(FF)"="yes"
"GB2312(86)"="yes"
"BIG5(88)"="yes"
Then double-click the file, add the content to the registry, restart Windows, and the troubleshooting is complete. If you are proficient in the registry, you only need to add the string key BIG5(88) to the above registry path with the value "yes".
What puzzles the author is why the above fault occurs when installing OFFICE. Since the fault is related to Chinese character codes, if your hard disk does not have Chinese character drive letters, Chinese character directory names, or even Chinese character file names, the fault should no longer exist. Interested friends can give it a try. ->
