As far as I know it's not possible to turn an exe into the source code. You should have backed up

Not sure what the final verdict is some say possible some say only some things possible to recover.

Edit: Learn some patience, can't wait 12 minutes for an obscure question to be answered at 1 in the morning? sheesh

I think it's cause that Nazi Communist Mednez decided to delete a post between those two which was talking about the beer.

If you are talking about VB6, then you probably won't have too much luck. The most you'll be able to recover will be function/module names and control properties, but not much more. You may have a bit more luck though if you compiled to p-code, although I'm thinking thats unlikely.

If you are talking about VB .NET, then you may have a bit more luck, since AFAIK, it is not compiled to machine code, but instead something similar to Java bytecode. I havn't tried though so I can't say much more.
