SYMPTOMS
During the Reverse Engineering process, the dialog box titled Reverse Engineering - Progress stops responding. The label over the progress bar states:

"Analyzing..."

without further progress. At the same time, the Visual Basic project status is shown as "Not Responding" in the Task Manager.



CAUSE
In Visual Basic, the line continuation character, that is, the underscore character on your keyboard ("_"), can be used to continue a statement from one line to the next. However, during the reverse engineering process from Visual Basic project to the Visual Modeler model, the line continuation character causes Visual Basic and Visual Modeler to stop responding.



RESOLUTION
To work around the problem, you must remove the line continuation characters from the Visual Basic code.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
