Summary

You can practically feel five million VB6 developers shudder. This is the year Microsoft finally pulls the plug on VB6, meaning that they absolutely need to switch to the newer version of the language, Visual Basic 2005, or pay the price. Microsoft is luring them with familiar VB6 features, but the conversion will still be rough. Our peerless guide is designed to help them migrate successfully. This Jumpstart Pocket Guide contains short code snippets that serve as a quick way for .NET newcomers to learn the syntax of VB 2005. Quick and concise, this handy pocket guide also explains the uses of the various important classes in the Base Class Library.
