How do I convert these statements from Visual Basic 2008 to Visual Basic
in Visual Studio 2003?

Namespace IVSSEventHandlerxx

     <ProgId("SourceSafe.Changes")> _
     <Guid("eeeeeeee-ffff-1111-2222-cccccccccccc")> _
     <ComVisible(True)> _
     Public Class test

         Implements IVSSEventHandler, IVSSEvents

I am mainly concerned about the attributes.

Thanks,

Frank

The best way to start is to post your question to the correct newsgroup.
This is a Visual Basic group and the products that you are using are not
Visual Basic, despite their deliberately misleading marketing names. Visual
Basic code will not work in Visual Basic 2008 or in any other similarly and
dishonestly named dotnet product (confusing, isn't it, but then confusion is
exactly what the dishonest Micro$oft fairground gypsies were after). Try
posting your question to:

    microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

Hi Frank,

There shouldn't be any problems with that, it may just be your references
and imports. As your post is to do with .NET, best to ask your question in a
dotnet forum such as :
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

Hi Frank,

Thanks for your post.

Mike and Bill are right. This question about VB.NET. The best place to ask
this question is at microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.

Regarding the attributes, there shouldn't be any problem. All the three
attributes come up from .NET 1.1. You should safely use them in VS.NET 2003.

Please test it in VS.NET 2003 and if there is any issue, report it at
microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb. Thanks for your cooperation.

Regards,
Hongye Sun (hong***@online.microsoft.com, remove 'online.')

   Not marketing .Net in non-.Net groups would
be a good start. Clearly it's your job to be
cloyingly solicitous to people who pay for service,
but you can still do that without disrespecting
the newsgroup.

Creating a reasonable migration path from VB6 would be an even better start.
Releasing a "real" VB 7.0 would surpass that.

I second that Bob, although no one really wants to hear that do they.

I don't usually bother to get involved in these migration "discussions"
anymore as the real issues seem to be totally ignored outside of the
VB-classic community, and the people/companies who are suffering are
flagrantly misrepresented as being somehow dumb

Maybe I should ask a Microsoft consultant how much it would cost to have
someone come in and re-architect nearly a million lines of multi-tier
multi-threaded VB-classic code, and QA it properly, and document the new
product (because it can't be the same), and then organise a switch-over of
our customers from old to new product - while supporting both types of
customer installation in the interim.
