How to check type of Object in VB 6 ? - I do not want to use 'TypeOf' method

How to check type of object in VB 6.0 we have to modify existing code to use 'typeof' method, Is there any method like moving cursor over object variable or like quick watch where I can see its type.

I know following method but I do not want to use it -

Set fs = New Scripting.FileSystemObject 

If TypeOf fs Is Scripting.FileSystemObject Then 
  Debug.Print "Is a FileSystemObject" 
End If

Try the TypeName Function.

In your example if you enter TypeName(fs) in the Immediate Window you would get back "FileSystemObject"
