VB.Net is Visual Basic for the .Net framework... much like C#, for web based applications. I have not tried it yet... I probably should give it a try over the summer and figure out if I should convince my teacher to teach .Net next year or Java as its planned Confused

I use vb.net, I love it... Its so easy and quick to make a small application.

The only Con to .net is that it requires the .net framework Crying or Very sad

Can you do this in vb old?

code:

Dim TW As IO.TextReader = IO.File.OpenText("c:\text.txt")
Dim data as string = TW.ReadToEnd()
TW.Close
MsgBox(data)

or this?

code:

Private t as Threading.Thread
Public Sub StartAThread()
t = New Threading.Thread(AddressOf GoThreads)
t.Start()
End Sub
Protected Sub GoThreads()
Dim i as int64
Dim s as string
For i = 0 to int64.MaxValue
s &= "This is in its own thread, and wont bog the GUI too much."
Next
End Sub

?
