This article identifies the Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.0 or 1.1 APIs that provide similar functionality to Microsoft Win32 functions. One or more relevant .NET Framework APIs are shown for each Win32 function listed. The intended audience for this article is experienced Win32 developers who are creating applications or libraries based on the Microsoft .NET Framework, but anyone looking for a managed counterpart for a Win32 function could find this document useful.

Very cool, now just give me the API Viewer from VB6 updated to .NET, and I'd be set.

    What about netapi.dll? mpr.dll? Etc. What are the recommended .NET equivalents?

    Particularly given Windows Server 2003?

    Can't find counterparts of

    GetWindowThreadProcessID

    Or
    Shell_NotifyIcon

    in there. Am I missing something?

    I agree with Duncan! an API Viewer for .NET and life happy ever after.
