Hi,

What will be fastest and easiest way to convert the very complex existing
vb6 project using Access database to a web project ? Any idea will be
appreciated.

Thanks
 
Two things:

a) get ready for some work, it's not all straight-forward
b) get Ed Robinson's "Upgrading Microsoft Visual Basic
6.0 to Microsoft Visual Basic .NET" (Microsoft, 2003)

Hope that helps.

Hello,

Personally I would try to isolate as much code as possible as COM objects,
so that you reduce rewriting code. If your existing application is already
designed in layers it would be make more sense to reuse these components in
your web application than rewriting the whole thing again.

A big task would be the user interface, since you would have to create this
from scratch and you may not have all the freedom of using Windows controls
as you would have in a VB application.
