For the most part you can think of VB6 as a superset of VB5, there is nothing really to upgrade, just taking advantage of the new functionality. Just open the project in VS6, and you should be good to go.
I would instead try to sell the customer on a VB.Net upgrade. It is not just opening the project and you are done, but it will allow you to have much more powerful tools/environment.
