Hi Shrikanth, The answer to this is no, because RoR uses a convention that you must follow in order to develop web apps, whereas in your VB.NET application you follow your own convention. The only way to convert your VB.NET project to RoR is to rewrite your code by hand using RoR's conventions. There isn't really I straight way of converting VB.NET projects to RoR, because you can have two developers develop two VB.NET applications using two different conventions. What you could probably do (I have never done this) is try to map RoR models to your legacy database. Maybe others with more experience can give you some hints as well. Good luck!
