64 bit operating system and 32 bit programs
(OP)
The visual basic 6.0, 32 bit executables sometimes run, some other programs run part way then others run without a problem.
Does anyone have any ideas to what might be happening here?

Of course, I don't use or know anything about VB (yet), so maybe the obvious answer doesn't apply.

I had lots of similar issues arise when I became an early user of Windows 2000. All sorts of things became much more of a hassle than they were worth, even though some of the hardware I purchased was "compatible" with Windows 2000.

Find the offending program on the drive, then go into properties and set the compatibility mode to run Windows XP.
I only tested it once but it looks like it is working. I did not think of this it was our IT guy.
