Are you having trouble with VB6 migration to .NET?

Just to be honest, you should have converted this VB6 project of yours to .NET a long time ago.

Visual Basic .NET is the next form of Visual Basic.

VB6 migration to .NET is import because VB .NET has two new forms packages (Windows Forms and Web Forms); a new version of ADO for accessing disconnected data sources; and streamlined language, eliminating legacy keywords, improving type safety, and exposing low-level constructs that advanced developers require.

These original features open new doors for the developer. Using VB6 migration to .NET a developer can now swiftly create scalable Web sites; with heritage, the language actually supports object-oriented programming. Windows Forms natively supports user-friendliness and visual inheritance; and deploying your applications is now as simple as copying your executable and components from directory to directory.

VB6 migration to .NET makes VB fully integrated with the other Microsoft Visual Studio .NET languages.

Not only can you foster application components in altered programming languages, your classes can now receive from classes written in other languages while using cross-language inheritance. Using the combined debugger, you can now debug numerous language applications, it doesn’t matter whether they are running locally or on remote systems.

It really doesn’t matter what language you use, the Microsoft .NET Framework offers a great set of APIs for Microsoft and the net.
