Nish [BusterBoy] wrote: Roger W. VB People? I'm indifferent - equally mediocre in lots of languages - I have no preference at all which language I write bugs in. Nish [BusterBoy] wrote: Roger and Tweety seem totally unaware that C# exists Hmmm... I see on my bookshelf "C# Essentials" by Albahari, Drayton, and Merrill, which I purchased out of the $2 bin last week and read. Well worth the investment; I am whelmed. I haven't figured out any way to ever get the compiler, so why care about the language? It will take another year to pay off VS6, which I've had only a few months,so VS.NET isn't on the horizon, and MSDN Pro is completely out of reach.

Is that what's in that 150MB+ monster I downloaded last week? I've only just skimmed it so far. Thanks! James T. Johnson wrote: "My words but a whisper -- your deafness a SHOUT.

I program in VB6 regularly (am doing it right now in fact) and, quite frankly, I dont want to use C++. I dont see why I should. The application I am working on now runs fast, I am using API calls to do some complex drawing, I am using COM to make it an extensible program, I am using Access to store data. Why would I do it in C++? VB allows me to do what I want to do easily, and its fun. -- David Wengier

Nish [BusterBoy] wrote: and yet they suffer in silence. you're listening in the wrong place. VB programmers are very upset about the changes (or, they were a year ago when the changes were announced). Nish [BusterBoy] wrote: So can someone give me 3 good reasons [playing safe here ] why any VB 6 programmer should try C# instead of VB.NET? 1. since MS has submitted C# to a standards body, there's less of a chance they'll do to C# the kinds of things they can to VB: change fundamental aspects of the language at will. though i suppose, given MS's record on such things, they'll probably extend the C# language whenever it suits their marketing needs. 2. it has "C" in the name. if they learn C#, they can pretend they're playing with the big boys, C and C++. 3. there is no Fight Club -c

Haven't you ever seen the movie Fight Club? The number one rule of Fight Club is There Is No Fight Club. (If I remember correctly) Jon Sagara What about :bob:? Sonork ID: 100.9999 jonsagara
