Solution 2

Cascading is a nonexistent keyword, and you're missing the closing curly brace for the method. Even if Cascading represented one of your own classes, it's location is invalid. In essence, you're specifying two return types.

Solution 1

For conversion try the online converters: here is one I use http://www.developerfusion.com/tools/convert/csharp-to-vb/[^]

The error message probably means it can't find the Cascading class - are you missing a reference, or a using statement?

Get rid of the misplaced space

C#

public CascadingDropDownNameValue[] GetColorsForModel (string knownCategoryValues,string category)

Get a clean compile.

Buy Reflector (it's cheep)

Open the DLL in that and decompile it into VB.

You'll have to clean up the code a bit but it works quickly.
