You can achieve this on a different way.

Just make an exe of the vb6 form then call it from your vb.net app by

Shell ( "Form1.exe" )

I forgot the syntax exactly, google "shell" for more info.

Better, I think, to create an ActiveX dll or ActiveX EXE for your VB6 code.
Then, add this Ax component as a reference in your .NET program.  You then
can call it directly from you code, just like any other object.
