Greetings,

I don't get in here much these days but it is great to see that VB6 still
lives for so many programmers.

Though I had not planned to ever release a new version of the MMM (Make My
Manifest) beta I have some changes that I thought I'd share. Of course by
now you may have made similar changes yourself, moved to another similar
program, or created your own substitute for MMM .

See http://mmm4vb6.atom5.com/yes-update-0-12-5479.html for some notes and
the download link.

Thanks for the memories, keep up the good fight.

I had a problem with the latest version of MMM that I tested (version 10),
my program threw an error (that I can't remember right now, but may be about
a component not properly registered, but I'm not sure), so I switched back
and stayed using version 9 (that didn't produce that error to arise) and
manually editing the DPI awareness section (because MMM didn't make it right
on version 9).
I'll have to test this new MMM version to see if everything works right now.

And thank you for making MMM available, it's extremely useful (and I don't
know of a replacement).

Yeah, I wrote an add-in that auto compiles a manifest into my apps, along
with all the manifest minutia. I never could get that mess you call an app
to work right. Sorry.

Very interesting, as MMM seems to work so well for so many others!

The DPI-Awareness node of the manifest has been changed and has worked fine
for us. It may still be imperfect.

A commercial tool called Side-by-Side Manifest Maker should still be
available. The Web site is at:

Really long shot but here goes...

Before I go reinventing the now very-old wheel; any chance you can hit me up with a link to MMM or, if you're happy to, stick the source on GIT and I'll (very likely) become a contributor?

I'm STILL fighting the fight and am looking to move our mid-sized application install (40+ apps and components) to side-by-side (where possible). I've played with UMMM but it doesn't provide what I'm after.

*fingers crossed* you even see this,

John

The top post ("Sunday, August 4, 2013") doesn't work because those links were
hosted on app.box.com, which is the site with the robots.txt, but the
download link from the post dated "Sunday, April 7, 2013" works just fine.

I'm curious about this as well, but contacting the author might not be an
option, since UMMM hasn't been updated since 2012.

There was a discussion about which version of MMM was appropriate.
Are there any updates on the version discussion?
I have v9, v10 and v12.
