Hi Tristan,
First, a correction. Visual Basic .Net and Visual Basic 2005 are the
very same language. We just use the name VB 2005 to distinguish it from
Visual Basic .Net 2003 and Visual Basic 6.
Second, as for the Microsoft .Net Express compilers I have a link to all
of them on my FAQ page

Hi Josh,
I haven't tried this with VB 2005, but I know VB 2003 had a wizard that
would allow you to import a VB 6 project,and it would attempt to convert
it to VB .Net.
In most cases the code was usable, but some of the code like DirectX
would have to be upgraded by hand to fit with DirectX 9.0C

I do disagree with you about me needing to move up with the latest and greatest

run in the next version of windows as well.
Hi Thomas,
Sorry, I misunderstood you. I thought that you were talking that current
software would not run in Vista and beyond. Definitely agree that every new
version of Windows has needed a much more powerful machine to run it on and
that, that will continue to be true.

Mostly it requires you opening yourself to security risks by disabling
