Any one here up to speed on using MS Visual Studio and in particular the Visual Basic part of it.
I used to do a lot in VB (mainly VB-6) and may need to ask a few questions about the product and its usage.
I am currently runing VS-2008 and have just got something to just about work!
I fear I may be a bit old school when it comes to my approach to designing a solution!!
Using VS 2010 and C# now but it's pretty similar to VS 2008 which I used as well.
If you have any VS specific questions just ask, I can also try to help you with VB as we can use
VB-C# converter (http://converter.telerik.com/).
Using VS2010 for C++ at the moment. Have used it for C# as well. VB.NET I've last touched a decade ago. It was a time of change back then, when .NET was starting out. It was like a breath of fresh air offing all the wonders of the universe to those who transitioned. We're older and wiser now though.
VB.NET is quite different from VB6. VB.NET now has classes, objects, inheritance, access control, exceptions, interoperability, multithreading, delegates and a whole new set of library classes/objects and functions to learn.
Microsoft have a book that details lots about migrating. A free download is available from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/ms788236 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/ms788236)

My old fashioned definitions of Class and Inheritance are probably whats causing me problems!!
