I've got the basic port to vB4 complete. Styling is a big issue, but I've been at least hitting the bigger issues to make things generally look better. But styling isn't something that I've ever done in vB so the conversion isn't all that easy for me.

I'm sure there are bugs still, but in general, things seem to be working pretty well.

I still haven't heard from BL though. I want to do a little more testing and will need to make sure things export and import again and then I might have a couple of people test it. After that, we'll see if those people consider it worth releasing or not and go from there.

As for fixes, changes, etc... I'm not planning on supporting the port to vB4. I'll do what I can to help out, but realistically, if it's released, it's still not my mod and I really don't have the desire/understanding of the mod to support it either. I'm doing it for myself and hopefully others that need the basic functionality for vB4. I hope that doesn't sound rude, I don't mean it to be. But the fact is, I'm not looking to "own" the mod in any way. =)

All that being said, I'll offer what help I can, when I can. But don't expect anything. =)

greats news Trek. I would gladly like to help you test it (Pm me if interested).

[maddoghalo1]

Trek, I can help ya test it when you look for people to test it.

[Verionia]

Cant wait for vb4 completion!

[JamesGunner]

I would like to get a copy of the vb4 port as well. I would have helped you port it but I was busy during new year and after. If you are ready to give it to some testers I would be glad test it, help and sort out bugs if necessary.

[TNCclubman]

Im not even looking at upgrading to vB4 until this is done (among 2 other custom mods and a style template as well)

Keep up the great work!

[we_are_borg]

Trek if you need another tester just yell at me i'm running vb4.0 as a test at the moment in its own test environment .

[Trek]

I gave the mod to two people to try out, so far I've heard back from one of them and things are working, the primary issues are as I said styling.

So, still working on the styling as time permits.

I'll probably PM a couple of you that mentioned testing over the next few days as well.

[ragtek]

I could also help you testing it
Could also check the code if you want.

Trek, if you need some more eyes on it, I wouldn't mind looking over it. I made a lot of customized forms with the old code so I know my way around it.
