If H1 visa stamp denied?

I got my B1 visa on Aug 12' 2003. The visa is for 6 months. I came to US using that visa and got a 3 month stamp. So I will be heading back to India this month.

When in US, I got a job offer and that company applied for my H1 . The H1 got approved but they did not give me a new I-94 and on the 797 Approval Action, they have said that I should goto the Mumbai Consulate to change my status and only then I can start working.

My question is:

a) If my H1 gets denied, can I still use my B1 visa to come to US in January' 2004? (My B1 visa will expire on Feb 11'2004)

b) If anyone recently interviewed for H1 at Mumbai consulate, can you please share your experience with me.

Greatly appreciate your help in advance. Thank you so much.
 
Generally if the US consulate decides to reject one non immigrant visa, they will cancel all previously approved NIVs...
