porting form embeddedVB to .NET

[c_xyTopa]

Hi all!

I have to port a rather complex business-application written in embedded VB
to .NET.
Some methods in that application are about 1000 lines. I am a bit scared

- Had sombody an expirience doing something like that?
- What are the difficulties?
- How long did it take?
- Is that time compareable to the time to develope the application from the
beginning?

Thanks for any help

Hi,
it is really a re-write - I have just been through a similar process.

We have a tool that will port the GUI of an eVB application to .Net, but
does not port any code. If you want to get a head start, this is a good
start - http://www.gui-innovations.com/html/evb_to_dotnet_forms.html
