problems with VB6 after reinstalling windows.

I have a laptop running vista and VB6 learning edition. I had to reinstall Windows and then reinstalled VB6 and SP6.
I also have a rather large project in VB6 that I use to run the accounts and student activity, print reports, registers etc. in my school. I copied that project back from the external hard drive backup and tried to run the IDE.

The first time, there were lots of errors "error accessing registry" and "error loading xxxx" I continued anyway and the project ran to an extent.
The second time I ran it from within the IDE, there were a lot less errors accessing the registry but I got , among other errors, ""Method or Data Member Not Found" and the line the IDE complained at was
Code:

dtp.Value= Now()
and another time,
Code:

StoreTemp = dpt.Value
and highlighted "Value"
I noticed that DateTimePicker was missing from the toolbox so I added the component MS Windows Common Controls 2-6 (SP6) but the error didn't disappear.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm not sure if it's relevant, but the machine I have runs Spanish Windows and when I installed SP6, it asked if I wanted to overwrite the Spanish versions of certain files, I said yes. :confused:
