This is an odd post? You have a VB app that's throwing unhandled errors? You need to change it but you're not a programmer?

Is your dev environment windows? If so, you should have VB6 or Visual Studio installed, either way you'll need these to access your VB project.
Once you open the project you should be able to run the code in debug mode, make the change and rebuild the project (this'll recreate an exe for you).

I believe GAMBAS and Mono offer excellent Linux equivalents.

If you don't have the source then you're in trouble.

This is too a big a subject to cover in post though..
this looks like it could be of help
