Christian, (i'm sure i'll get slammed for this but...)

I'm confused by your question of "Why are you using VB6". While I agree that vb6 and dotnet are night in day in comparison, I'm sure you aware that a developer's tools are not always up to them. If his company has many many applications written in vb6, then it's not always possible to do a mass conversion spending time and resources to do so...finding alternatives to ocx's that were being used, ramp up time learning dotnet stuff replacing the vb6 etc. Not to mention the amount of testing that would need to occur testing the new versions of an existing app as well as possible distribution considerations (installing the app and ms framework on possibly thousands of computers).

Now if the above is not the case and the developer went into vb6 willingly then yes he should be questioned on his choices.

My company has a website written with asp and vb6 dlls. Website has thousands of pages on it and would take years to rewrite in asp.net. $$$$ talks and other projects are more important...

Don't hate me Smile | :) Nathan
