With Visual Studio 2008 you can get C#, VB.NET, VC++ .NET, J# and many tools. Your VB will be converted into VB.NET. You can keep your VC++ as native code or converted it into managed code with VC++ .Net.

Your VB will be converted into VB.NET. So your saying it will convert your VB6 apps to VB.Net? I don't think so. -------------------- Keith
http://www.martin2k.co.uk/forums I've been programming with VB for 12 years. Started with VB4 16bit Pro, VB5 Pro, VB6 Pro/Enterprise and now VB3 Pro. But I'm no expert, I'm still learning. |

QUOTE So your saying it will convert your VB6 apps to VB.Net? Please correct me if I'm wrong. Because after I open all of my VB6 apps with Visual Studio 2005 (or 2008), they are all be converted to VB.NET. The compiled files must run with .net Framework. I think they are all changed to VB.NET, aren't they??? This post has been edited by rongchaua: Jan 22 2008, 08:07 AM -------------------- |

I'm not suree rongchaua all as I'm going by is what I read in other VB forums. people have been using VB6 for years and now have VB.Net and they ask is there a program that will convert the code from one to another and all the answers I've seen is NO. I have seen this on Microsoft I don't use VB.Net because I love VB6, I've used it for 14 years. -------------------- Keith

QUOTE they ask is there a program that will convert the code from one to another and all the answers I've seen is NO. Ah, I understand now what you mean. There is no perfect tool to convert from VB6 to VB.NET. The converter makes always with error. I must always fix the projects manually after I use Visual Studio 2005 (2008) to open a project written in VB6. And after that, my project will be seen as VB.NET (not VB6 any more). Therefore I have said that VB6 would be converted into VB.NET. QUOTE I don't use VB.Net because I love VB6, I've used it for 14 years. You must be a master of VB. -------------------- |
