For many of the reasons others have mentioned, I chose to make the leap from
vb6 to c# some time ago. Conversion of a vb6 app to .net can be a tedious
exercise. I chose to just rewrite it in c# and take that opportunity to
learn a new language and clean up some of my previous "features".
If you look around the internet, you'll see all sorts of languages that run
in .Net (Cobol, Perl, Forth, etc). Pick the one(s) that work for you. I'm
kinda surprised that no one has jumped and written Pick
Basic.Net<http://Basic.Net>yet... :-)
