How to make VB6 programs using gpib-32.dll run on 64bit machines?

Please help an old programmer!

I've been using VB6 and NI's drivers,NI-488.2 Version 2.5.2. , under Windows XP for years. I'm writing one now, but it's for windows7, 64 bit and it won't run.

What do I need to write programs for Window7, 64 bit? Can I continue to use VB6 and installand use the NI4882_3 instead of the NI488.2 I'm using?

If I can't continue with VB6, I do have Visual Studio 2005, but haven't used it much, because I have been using VB6 all along. Will I have to use that and NI4882_3?

 

Thanks for helping.

Time to upgrade to VB.NET and VISA.

Visual Studio is now at 2012.
