If you have installed VB6 or any of Visual Studio's other development tools on your system, you have
also automatically installed VCM.
To make VCM available from the VB IDE, you must also add VCM to the VB toolbar. To add VCM to
the VB toolbar, open the Add- Ins menu and make sure that the Visual Component Manager 6.0 item
has its Loaded/Unloaded and Load on Startup options checked (see Figure 12.8).

FIGURE 12.8. Using the Add-Ins dialog box to add Visual Component Manager to the VB IDE.
After VCM has been enabled, you will see the VCM icon on the VB toolbar (see Figure 12.9).
