Not sure if anyone can help with this rather weird problem. I have AutoCAD 2007 installed on my laptop. I also have VB6 installed. I tried to run an application that has been written in VB6, and at a certain point, it tries to run the AutoCAD installer, and asks for the CD.

So I got hold of the code, opened it up in VB6, and it does the same thing. Then I tried viewing the form layout in VB6, and immediately it tries to run the AutoCAD installer. I don't know what it's trying to install. The program doesn't use AutoCAD at all.

I think this is quite a rare problem as I can't find any solution from Googling. However, I did find this link, but I have to pay to view it : http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Languages/Visual_Basic/Q_23090722.html

I've checked all the file associations, and they are all set to VB6.

Any guesses to what might be causing this?
