This is what you need to do if your Sage Accounts application has been corrupt and you can’t open it:
[text]Save your data files directory (Sage\Accounts)
Uninstall/completely remove the Sage installation
Re-install Sage Line 50 v9.x
Start Sage and complete the Company wizard with typical information
Close it
Copy the ACCDATA folder with contents to your new installed Sage
Start Sage and type your username (if one did exist when you created this data)

1. Install Visual Basic 6.0 (as Administrator)
Select custom install as follows:
Microsoft VB 6.0
Active X
Data Access
Graphics
2. Skip MSDN and all other install options (Source Safe, VC++, etc).
3. Uncheck registration and complete the setup.
4. Run VB (should run fine).
Note: VB should run fine, but in some cases may need the vb6.exe set with compatibility settings on:
path: c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\vb6.exe
R-click > Properties > Compatibility and check the following:
Run in Windows XP mode
Disable Visual Thems
Disable Desktop Composition
Disable display scalling on high DPI settings
5. Install VB 6.0 SP6 if needed (there should be no issues and previous SPs are not needed).
Note: MDAC 2.5 are NOT needed for Windows Vista and later.
