VB Decompiler Lite is a decompiler for programs (EXE, DLL or OCX) written in Visual Basic 5.0 and 6.0 and disassembler for programs written on .NET technology. As you know, programs in Visual Basic can be compiled into interpreted p-code or into native code.
Since p-code consists of high-level commands, there is a real possibility to decompile it into the source code (of course, the names of variables and some functions will not be decompiled). VB Decompiler Lite restores source code from p-code as much as possible precisely.
And after some modifications you may try to compile generated code. If a program was compiled into the native code, restoring full source code from machine instructions is not possible. But VB Decompiler Lite can help to analyze the program even in this situation as well.
It contains a powerful disassembler and emulator. This powerful engine tries to decode most assembler instructions to most likely VB commands. Of course, it fails on some optimizations of assembler code and sometimes generate incorrect instructions. But at this time this is a best way to analyze native code applications.
If a program was compiled to .NET assembly, decompiler will recover all tables and modules in managed assembly and disassemble all methods, functions and events using IL disassembler. .NET FrameWork is not needed for decompilation.
In general, VB Decompiler Lite is an ideal tool for analyzing programs and it is perfect if you lose the source code and need to partially restore the project. VB Decompiler Lite is the ideal tool for programs analysis and recovering lost source code.
· Decompiling forms and usercontrols object files
· P-code decompiling

Limitations:
· Some features are disabled: P-Code decompiling, code obfuscating and Native Code disassembling optimization
What's New in This Release:
· Calling VTable properties and methods from some form to any other form now can be decompiled. For example if you change in Form1 property of object in Form2 - it can be correctly decompiled (Native Code)
· Parameters of object method/property is now typicle. If object have parameters as boolean or single - it will be decompiled correctly: single as float variable, boolean as True/False) (Native Code)
· Decompile declaration of all types of array. Multifield arrays and arrays of object (array of Form or commandButton for example) also supported (Native Code)
· Decompile __vbaVar2Vec, __vbaAryMove msvbvm functions
· Italian language translation
· Parsing control array index in events
· Parsing function return value (P-Code)
· Help files (English and Russian) is updated. New topics writen: Opening file, Working with database, Saving the list of procedures, Jump to address, The main window, Viewing of code, Decompilation from offset, Language selection, Plugins
· Language files changed
· BugFix: ...
