    Had to produce a complex form for one of our apps. Its not sure at the stage whether it will go into production and as its a stand alone form I thought I would develop it in a test application (c#) rather than the full code to see how it would work and the best way to do it. All worked great, so I had a look at the original code. Oh crap, its in VB.Net!

        Surprised that VB is still being actively developed. VB 15.5 seems to be the latest version, and it seems to be on par with C# 7.3.

          No. Just historic stuff only. I think this one was one of the last VB developed one.

            Do you have a link for that? As far as I can see, VB and C# are being released in parallel.

              Sorry. I was referring to our code here at work, not the development cycle of VB - C#

                No problem, I lost interest in your code base once I realized VB was still being officially developed :-)

                  Not a problem. We have a major app written in VB and everything new is in c#.

                    If it's a large amount of code you don't want to port, you might consider just making it CLS compliant[^].

                      The hard part was in the how and not the volumne. So I'll probably just convert it...
