    Well, VB can only do everything C# can. It only has no curly braces and semi-colons. I guess VB isn't for you if you just love those curly braces and semi-colons...

    While doing linq in VB.NET is possible it is implemented much better in C#.

      It's as possible as in C#![^] I don't see how that's better or worse than C#... :confused:

        No one is good for nothing. He can always be used as a bad example. :-D

          You're right, it does more than C#! :D I've never used that one though :laugh: I wonder if it's just a shorthand for an empty catch block... In that case C# supports it too ;)

          Used properly it allows you to code try catch blocks : : : on error resume next perform_some_action_which_may_generate_an_error on error goto 0 test_and_act_upon_err_object : : : unfortunately most people forget to do the testing part.

            I've used LINQ in both C# and VB.net... a lot. Once again, there is no real difference between the two languages. C# has better syntax; it makes you look smarter. VB.net gives you a better idea of what's actually happening; it educates you. .NET is the magic here. C# and VB.net are just twin languages riding its glory.

                Not sure what that does, but it's possible in C# as well :D

                  I has been said many times that be able to code does not necessarily make you a programmer/developer. I just realised that I am one of those people who can write code that works pretty well. I'm not always proud of my methods (don't mean methods as in procedures) and design, most of the time I do whatever works. I get my code to work by any means necessary. I guess I am not a programmer/developer even though that is the my official position at work. Question is who/what am I?

                    Except when your code blocks are catchs in ifs in switchs.

                      You are like most of the successful professionals. The best programmers solve problems with whatever is given and provide solutions by any means necessary. So, you solve problems. Be proud!! :cool:

                        If you're doing that, you need more help than just a VB.NET End can give. :~
