Hi,

I am about to migrate a couple of projects from VB 4.0 to the .Net
plateform. What is the best way to do this? Is it Vb4 --> Vb5 --> VB6 --.Net
Converter tool--> .Net or use the converter tool from VB4 to .Net?
Any help or pointers will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Kika

In MY opinion migrating from VB4 -> VB5 -> VB6 -> sounds like a HECK OF A LOT
of work, and I would recommend avoiding that if possible. If you attempt to
open the project with .Net the converter will start. I don't know for sure,
but it might convert vb4 to .net. The convertor only does so much for you
and you'll have to deal with the remaining issues so I can't see that doing
intermediate conversions will benefit you.

Good luck
