PV Function And Porting VB6 To C#?
Sep 24, 2009I'm working on porting some classic VB6 code to C# and just stumbled across a usage of the PV function.I feels wrong including a reference to the Microsoft.VisualBasic Assembly. Is this something that is commonly done, or should I explore further options. The next idea that pops into my mind is exploring this PV function in Reflector.

Vb6 Migration - Porting A .bas File To Vb?
Feb 21, 2011I'm working on some legacy VB5/VB6 code and need to convert a ".bas" file to vb.net. i found several options
Compile the .bas file into a com dll and then reference and use it in my project. (For this I guess I would need vb5 or vb6 which I don't have at my disposal) Copy and paste the contents of the file in to a new module in vb.net and then try solving the errors one by one.The contents of the .bas file reference a particular dll. The .bas file has mostly declarations consts, types, sub's and functions.
What would be the most elegant way of redoing this in vb.net. Is it as simple as option 2.EDIT
I used VS2008 express and ran the code through the upgrade wizard it did the necessary conversion. and the .bas file was converted to .vb. I took that file and decided to rewrite other parts of the code, including some redoing of the converted .vb file. Other questions related to this one are here.
Windows.Forms Based Apps Vs WPF Based Apps?
Jun 21, 2010 what WPF based apps are?Is it an application that runs under Silverlight? If so, how?I know; Windows Forms based apps,console apps,DLL _ Class Library Projectsand I've had an introduction to ASP.Net.What I mostly want to know is, if WPF apps are for Silverlight then do they also run in a server based fashion like anASP.NET website would when you create ASP.Net webpages?Is it a way of creating what looks like a FORMS BASED application but it runs in a browser instead or what?Please enlighten me a bit further as I have no idea what WPF is all about.
C# - Language Choices When Porting A Classic Asp App To .NET
Sep 7, 2010We are looking to port our existing classic ASP application to .NET, but we're unsure of what language to use for the new app. I personally would 'prefer' C#, as I'm more familiar and comfortable with that languages way of doing things, but, the original code is VBScript, so it would possibly be easier to port to VB.NET ... One possible situation I fear would be that, because the code is so similar between the two variants of VB, that we might end up getting stuck on something that is not similar between the two, even though it looks like it would work. A shift to a wholly different language might avoid that kind of situation. Does anyone have any practical examples of this kind of situation? Insights to illuminate the issue with? Do the potential benefits of a complete paradigm shift outweigh the gains from a high degree of 'copy-and-paste-ability' ?
View 9 RepliesDatagridview - Porting A VB6 Application With Msflexgrid
Mar 17, 2009I am porting a vb6 application to VB.net. One of the key forms has a large msflexgrid on it - about a 1000 columns and 50 rows. It has 2 header rows - the first header row has merged cells to form a main header and the second row has sub headings. There is no requirement for any data entry and it's unbound. The code does the work in deciding what to display (if anything) in each cell. It is solely used to display data in the form of a character and a coloured background and to display a tooltip text with more information when you mouse over it. Works beautifully in vb6. I'm trying to decide whether to:
a) use the vb6 msflexgrid in the .net version
b) use the datagridview - which at a first glance seems to have a problem merging the cells on the header row
c) build my own custom control to do the job
Forms :: Toolbar Question - WRT Porting From VB 6?
May 16, 2009I've got a VB 6 application that I ported over to VS 2005. The application has a toolbar on it. When building it in VB 6, I created all the bitmaps for the toolbar. And they looked just fine.Now I have ported to VS 2005. The toolbar works just fine. But the images in the toolbar look "wrong". The best way to describe them is if you took each bitmap and squeezed it down to about 67% of it's size. So it is missing the detail it used to have. And the smalleer picture still takes up the same amount of space on the toolbar. It is just that each squeezed bitmap now looks like it has a thick, blank pictureframe around it.

Linq - Database Advice Needed: Porting VB6/ADO/JET App?
Jul 22, 2010I need to update (well, rewrite really) a SMALL VB6 application which uses ADO to access a JET database, to a vb.net app in Visual Studio 2008. My research suggests that I should use LINQ, but it doesn't seem to be possible to connect to JET. If JET is now deprecated, what should I use? Or should I use ADO.NET without LINQ?
Please don't answer SQL Server! - this needs to be an app that end users can install easily in corporate or non-corporate environments, and must not require any ongoing technical maintenance.

View 2 Replies.NET Connect To Linux Server?
Jun 22, 2011I have to develop a small application that will connect to a Linux server (scp on port 22), upload a file, and then execute the file. The first thing that came to mind was to call WinSCP from my app, but the initial connection will always prompt to accept the hostkey. When calling WinSCP from the commandline you can press a key to copy the hostkey to the clipboard, and then you can use it with the -hostkey switch to connect. Any thoughts on how I might do this in VB? It would have to look like this:
Attempt to connect via WinSCP
Copy hostkey to clipboard when prompted
Attempt to connect again using hostkey
I'm just not sure about #2. I would have to send a keystroke for the letter 'C' which causes the hostkey to be copied to the clipboard.
