Essential .NET Training for Visual Basic 6 Developers

On this page you will find a complete series of training videos that give Visual Basic 6 developers the essential skills to start developing on the .NET platform today, whether it is completely new .NET applications, or simply adding .NET functionality to existing Visual Basic 6 applications.

Visual Basic Interop

This how-to video series is focused on the Interop Forms Toolkit and working with Visual Basic .NET and Visual Basic 6 together. The Interop Forms Toolkit allows Visual Basic developers to migrate their Visual Basic 6 applications over to .NET using a phased migration strategy. Instead of having to convert the entire VB6 application at once, the toolkit enables .NET Forms and User Controls to run directly in Visual Basic 6 applications so that you can build the pieces that you need over time.

You will need: Visual Studio and the Interop Forms Toolkit 2.1 in addition to Visual Basic 6.0

Upgrading a Visual Basic 6 Application

This video series is focused on how to upgrade Visual Basic 6 applications to Visual Basic .NET, covering everything from assessing how much time it will take to upgrade an application to running the upgrade wizard. You will need: Visual Studio or Visual Basic Express in addition to Visual Basic 6.0
