I have a fairly complex database program that was written in Access
BASIC (Access 2.0).  Is there a conversion utility that will convert
this program into VB (specifically versions 4.0 or 5.0)?

I know of one program from Romy-Tek called Visual Bridge (thanks Bill
L.!), it seems to be only capable of handling the forms conversion and
does not convert rules into VB.   Perhaps this is a daunting task
though I doubt it's an impossibility.  

Many, many hours had been put into the forms and rules and I'd hate to
think that a lot of that time was wasted.

Thank you,
Shawn
