Well, its looks weird that you lost source code itself or are you experimenting on someone else's exe?

Anyway, doesn't matter to me.
For VB 6 or below, I am almost sure, its not possible because it directly converts to machine language. But still you can try.

For .Net framework, its possible including VB.Net. ILDASM.EXE comes with ur V Studio itself. You can see your source code using that in assembly lang.
For proper programming lang ... there are paid tools avbl on net. Can explore that.

most of the software developers are totally depends on google search engine.
programes codes are also available on google thats helps the programmers to get ideas how to implement the logic....
google is good for help but its depend on us whether we get knowledge or we do copy and paste........


some paid software are also available to convert .exe file into source code....its costly.....my company has its own software but in java.

I am not sure what kind of clients he is talking but client always expects the source code. The client is having their teams to wrap it into some deployable component to put it on the server. Becuse in future if they want some enhancement they can easily do with the source code. I have not seen even a single example where the client is not having access to source code. Might be I have not worked on that kind of projects where client expects only EXEs.

yes deependra you r right.......each company provide the source code to his clients......but there is some agreement between client and company.
according to this agreement each company provide full services to their clients after delivering the project abput 1 or 2 year.
during this period client can't do any modification in source code.

after this perid client can do any modification according to requirements...and without source code it's not possible.

Thanks Vikas for inputs. I agree with you that Company will provide the support during the Pilot and Production phase. My only concern was that those guys were making the kind of impression that the companies don't provide code to Clients.
