Converting from VB6 to VB.NET 2003

[Marty]

Hi,

I have a very big VB6 program to convert to VB.NET 2003. When I use the
..NET converter, it convert up to a point where the converter just hang
and never finish the job. The converter is not freezing, it is at
approx. 80% that the converter just hang (with almost 0% CPU from task
manager).

Is there a VB6 code validator to run on my program to be sure that it is
convertable?

Regards,
Marty

There are a couple of tools...

Code Advisor for Visual Basic 6.0

I think this one's geared toward VS2005 but it's very cool... even if you're
not migrating to .Net

Visual Basic 6.0 to Visual Basic .NET Upgrade Assessment Tool

Don't count on too much, as far as automatic conversion goes. VB6 and dotNet
are just too different.

Thank you, I'll try those two applications.
