Use C#.
Seriously though, you posted in the C# group. What kind of answer did you
expect?

Well, for a start, VB is long gone - Microsoft dropped mainstream support
for it over two years ago:
http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/search/?sort=PN&alpha=Visual+Basic&Filter=FilterNO
However, if you mean VB.NET, then the choice is simple - use C#...
What answer were you expecting in a C# newsgroup, AAMOI...?

Nah - VB.NET is now long gone. It became VB with VS 2005 (in the same
way that VS.NET from 2002/2003 went back to VS).
Microsoft do enjoy changing things every so often

I've got a few thoughts at

It could do with a bit of updating, but the thrust of things is the
same.

How i can decide which language(VB or C#) to select for
developing under .NET mostly consists in calling framework classes, so
when you look at a piece of code, it's sometime hard at the very first
glance to know if it is coded in c#, vb.net and even delphi.net.
Once this has been said, what are the real differences and what are you
waiting for ...
Technicaly speaking, I think there are some good reasons MS developed
the framework with C# and not VB. I'm also feeling that on this NG
dedicated to C# a lot of other people are thinking the same
On a subjective point of view, you can prefer the vb syntax. Just up to
you..
Comparing the "power" of 2 languages is always very difficult and often
subjective. On a NG this is very often ending in a troll... So the best
is to look at the framework doc and read code samples in C# and VB.NET
and decide which one is the best for you...

98% of the time, it doesn't matter.
I'd read this
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/CSharpVersusVB.asp
also.
If I was starting fresh, I'd definately go C#. But its just one other
opinion in the bag.

In the same line of answer as the C# Mvp in this message
You would not even think if you would know what is comming in the next
version of VB.Net,
For the rest stupid question, I use both and don't even feel the difference.
