I think you and I are very similar. We're the multitaskers that can "hack" something together to make it work. As you can see from the other replies, there's a lot of variables that go into an external facing e-commerce website. If you're not on top of them, it could be disastrous to say the least. Maybe someone could recommend a skinnable e-commerce service in the cloud or something prepackaged to minimize your risk.

I would first say to my self "what are we actually trying to accomplish?" A lot had changed in 7 years and there may be other ways to get the job done. For example I have a client that had a full e-commerce site that switched to etsy, her sales have only gone up.
I would suspect your SQL Server tables and procedures etc should be just fine on new hardware.
For all the excitement of the past 10 years the basics of web development are still the same. POST and GET still do the same things. works the same.
What do these programs do? Who will be using them? A few internal users or public website?

I would consider converting Ecom to something like Shopify, etc. With security, ssl transactions and other at your age(like me) I’d let someone else carry that load.
I’d continue company VB programs with 2015. Not a lot has changed with DB hookups. You can solve most questions/problems with stack overflow.

I'm an old guy, too. One thing I've learned is to throw away my books. Every framework or language has tutorials on the web. That's where I would start.
My most recent preference is ASP.NET MVC in C# with Entity Framework 4.8. I would recommend Core, but it is subject to so many frequent, breaking changes, and there is no Microsoft Reporting Services version that supports RDLC under Core, yet.

This gets even more interesting when you add one or more greyhounds to the formula. More bed means fewer dogs on the floor, which means more floor space which is taken up by the bed. Less floor space means less room for you to sleep (you didn't think you slept on the bed, did you?).

So what you’re saying is that there is no reason whatsoever to worry about the voting systems in the US election. Got it!

I used the expression "Incompatibility Matrix" in one of my documents ...
... and of course, because of my bad english I tried to cross check that on Google Translate.
But Google Translate insists that "Incompatibility" is wrong and only accepts "Compatibility".
Where I'm wrong?
Thank you in advance 
And while I'm cross checking the above with google, no issues 
Seems to be solved, anyway hints still welcome, thanks.

As with a spell-checker that doesn't recognize all words, or all forms of all words, so it is with Google lookup. That you found "Comparability Matrix" should reassure you about the expression (assuming your desired incompatibility definition is in line with the given meaning, except for the negation).

I am English from England and speak both English and American fluently.
"Incompatibility" is a perfectly good word. Google Translate is not a comprehensive dictionary of English, but does it's best. However, just because it doesn't know a word or a particular variation of a word, "Compatible" in this case, doesn't mean it is correct and you are not.

Don't get me started... 
But, no, you're correct in this particular instance.

Phrased another way: your question is: "Is it incompatible?" (mechanic): "Uh, yes".
Versus: "Is it compatible?" (mechanic): No.
People understand "positive" phrasing easier than negative phrasing.
A compatibility matrix would have simple yes's and no's. Yours would be an inversion, at a minimum.

Good point.
But maybe things being incompatible is a Very Bad Thing and you want to highlight the danger of putting them together?
Need more context.

Google's suggestion is probably based on usage frequency.
Look for something compatible first.
"What have you got that's not incompatible"?
Sounds like a plea in the DIY hardware department.

The reason using an incompatibility matrix here is simply there are only view combinations needed to be marked as incompatible against thousands of compatibles.
