Creating Web Controls in VB.Net

[Robert]

Hello all,

All of our programs have been written as Active X
controls in VB 6 and are accessed through Internet
Explorer. This has made it easy for verion control. I
would like to now upgrade everything to .Net, but will
most likely rewrite most of the code. Could you provide
suggestions to accomplish this similar setup in VB.Net?

Thanks in advance.
