I'm trying to get .NET adopted in my company, but the code that is being done is VB6-style VB.NET. Originally, I wanted to get all code done in C# to avoid this problem, but alas...
So, non-OO .NET is being churned out and I'm battling to find MS documentation that will help me "win over" all the VB6 ppl.
Does anyone else have this issue?
Cheers,
Simon

I think there are books available for smooth transition from VB 6 to VB .NET.
And I am not sure whether pure VB 6 style code would even compile on VB .NET.
And remember people don't like to change to something new, something they are not well-versed in, they get scared of change, of being shown out as ignorant.

Some years ago I had a similar issue. The only way: start coding small and very useful classes.
Some months later, people will start understanding the OO benefits.
Some years later, most of them will be happy OO programmers. A couple of them even will use STL and create C++ templates.
If you can't wait this time try finding another job.

I am looking for a good example of a statusbar in VB.NET that does not involve creating from code. I have written one that is built from code but can not understand the new format. to preconfigure at design time.

The rumours that I am an AI bot are absolutely false. These rumours have been propogated by *them* to focus all the attention on to me, while *their* bots take over the planet. Thank y%%%% Divide by zero. Cannot proceed. Abort(y/y)?

Even after MPB tipped me off, I miss this one, as I am installing stuff at home.
Anyway it's better that you did it, than someone I dont even know.

I didn't, but I lucked out; I was going to see what the new posts were in another forum when I saw .NET sitting at 499

 I honestly don't really know what has gone wrong here but when I do a search on the help system from within .NET, the hits that come back are all titled 'a'.
Is there a command or something that can rebuild the help system or do I have to reinstall the 1.7GB again 
Regards,
Geoff Davis

Don't know the answer, but did you found the installation process went smooth and easy, working from the first time ?

Hi Chaps
Little problem but its simple:-
Is there a way of deploying and creating web services without being a local administrator because our ITS department are a bit of a control freaks
and hey are 'unhappy' about us being local admins of our own pcs?
Is there anyone else out there who has to put up with this or is it just our company that contains these types of people?

I hope anybody here can help me out.
I've just installed visual studio.Net on my Window 2000 Pro computer. VS.Net launched fine. However, when I tried to new a asp.Net web application, the IDE can create the project but without any .aspx or .cs files. It came up with the error message - "Automation sever can't create object". The same error message came up wherenever I tried to create a web form, web service, class, component class, dataform wizard, data set or web user control. However, it could create static HTML page, XML file, style sheet etc. It seems that some OLE objects did not function properly. I don't know how to fix it.
Could anybody help me please?
My system configuration: visual studio.Net Enterprise Architech, Win2K Professional SP2
Hardware: PIII 1G, 512MB
Thank you.
David

Besides, I have removed VS.NET and reinstalled it twice but the problem doesn't go away.
Thanks first.

Is it possible that an antivirus app is blocking a script from running?

Thanks, Mark. However, I have no antivirus app installed in the computer.

Hi,
I've heard rumors about how if you install the .NET Framework on a computer running a production website, it will overwrite ADO 2.6 with 2.7, and existing COM apps that use databases on that computer will break.
Even worse, I've heard that if you install the .NET Framework on a development computer, you can no longer compile ADO 2.6 based COM software that will run on a computer with ADO 2.6.
Is there any truth to these rumors (or some parts of them)? Are there any workarounds to these problems?
Thanks.
