Hi Luqman,

There is a project named Mono to port the .NET Framework to non-Windows
operating systems. See:

http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/development_tools/mono.html

and

Hi Carlos,

Did you ever tried compiling the VB.Net Application with Mono, and run on
Linux or Mac OS X ?

I have gone through various articles on Mono Web Sites, and they show,
various Mono components are under development by different programmers.

My need is just to compile the VB.Net project, so that it can be
successfully run on Mac OS X, is it possible ?

Best Regards,

Luqman

I would give you a good chance if you develop your program with Mono or #
develop from scratch
as not all classes are availlable on the target systems

so developing in VS and then expecting it to compile on Mono is far away yet
