I've been on 64 bit Vista or Win7 since the Vista RTM (working with VB6 weekly), and never had any issues. All of our VB6 stuff (still receiving at least monthly releases) is built in on a 64 bit Vista box. The vast majority of our installs are on 32 bit XP. .NET is a different story. By default .NET builds "any cpu" which will JIT compile to 64 bit on an x64 machine, and 32 bit on x86. Not a problem if your .NET code has no COM references, but if you have any COM references you'll have to force the project to x86 or it will blow up on the 64 bit boxes.
