    Hello, I downloaded following Chess program written in classical VB, however after trying to convert it to VB.Net code via the conversion wizrd I got numerous errors which I couldn't resolve. Since I'm not familiar with VB.net, I need someone instruct me on the problem or provide me the upgraded code. Many Thanks in Advance Link to program: Migoya Chess

      Which version of the converter are you using. Although I have little to no experience with it I hear that the 2005 converter is much better than previous versions.

        There's just WAY too much information to go over and way too many possible problems. There's no way to answer your question in the form you want. Personally, I don't recommend the Upgrade Wizard at all. There is no coversion tool that will do a good conversion with no errors. You're just going to have to rewrite from scratch or find an example in VB.NET.

          Every application we have has been "converted" from VB6 which was actually rewriting the applications from scratch and only using the VB6 as a basic model.

            I'm using visual studio 2008. The problem is just about handling of arrays (as compiler listed the errors). But I think with a little work it can be surmounted.
