VB6 to C# Upgrade Demo: gmStudio FileExplorer Sample (Tool-Assisted Rewrite)

Modernizing a VB6/ActiveX application is rarely “just a rewrite.” In this gmStudio FileExplorer sample demo, we walk end-to-end through a small but realistic upgrade—starting with a standard translation that builds, then moving into a custom upgrade where COM components and APIs are systematically replaced so the WinForms UI renders correctly and the app runs. You’ll see how gmStudio supports an agile, tool-assisted rewrite methodology: using translation scripts (gmPL), snapshots/comparisons, refactor libraries, and targeted rule changes to incrementally improve accuracy, remove interop dependencies, and apply upgrades like Twips-to-Pixels and custom assembly references. The result is a repeatable modernization process that shifts effort away from manual construction and toward higher-value technical design and optimization.
