how to compile with Visual Studio 6.0 my VB6 project

Hi all,
sorry for the dumb question: I want to compile my VB6 project using
visual Studio 6.0 IDE.

With "compile" I mean to check compilation errors without running my
app.
E.g. With Option Explicit, I want to know if I forgot to dim a
variable, etc.

Is there a button in the IDE to run such check?

Thank you very much!
Bye

Not really. As Mayayana said you can try to create an executable but
there's no way to just do a full syntax check without either doing that or
running the project by using the 'Run with full compile' option.

I quite often either add "Debug.Assert False"as the first executable line or
add a dummy "Sub Main" that does nothing so I can so that but not have the
code actually do anything before I can stop it.

If they ever create a VB 7 it would be a nice addition <g>

Menu -> File -> Make Project

That will attempt to compile without running. It
will stop he compile at any errors.

The vbAdvance toolbar offers that option.
