For many of the reasons others have mentioned, I chose to make the leap from vb6 to c# some time ago. Conversion of a vb6 app to .net can be a tedious exercise. I chose to just rewrite it in c# and take that opportunity to learn a new language and clean up some of my previous features. If you

The concept of having Basic.Net assembly language is one I am interested in too. One could write the business rules in PICK Basic in a class and use VB or C# to develop the GUIs. Best of Both Worlds. I don't believe it is too complex; one of the open source PICK developers may be able to adapt

U2 are 'semi-compiling' like pascal and java... That is the source code is parsed and transformed to a low level - easely parsed - language that is interpreted at run time. -- mats Roger Glenfield wrote: Isn't Universe/Unidata still using a runtime interpreter instead of generating assembler

Seems to work... Mind you I still recommend writing code in subroutines first and then calling it, rather than using the other objects, other than for smaller uses. It is so much easier to QA as you can test the routines on the server first, write test scripts and see any error messages
