Is it possible to create a modular project?

[Gary Kahrau]

Can the following be done with vb.net?
Would c# do a better job?

I am thing of creating a very large project in vb.net (hundreds of
forms?).
I would like to have many project files each containing a managable
number of forms and dealing with a logical business function
(scheduling, purchasing, shipping,.....)
When the program runs, I want the user to "see" one integrated
program. I don't want a lot of forms poping up all over the place.
Ideally, only one form is presented to the user at a time (except for
dialog boxs).

I need to know if this is possible or I will terminate the porting of
our ERP system.

Thanks,
Gary...

Yes and no. In matters of features you need to develop such an application,
there is no difference between VB.NET and C#. If you are dealing with very
large projects, the VB.NET IDE might be slightly slower than the C# IDE
because the background compiler has to do its work to provide IntelliSense
information and to mark errors in the code you wrote.

Yes and no. ?? Yjat is a little vague for me :-(

My main concern is making it modular.
Any ideas where I can get more information on this subject?

Gary,

When the decission point is making "modulair" than I can not see any
difference. When both are done well, than C# and VBNet make almost the same
Net DLL's.

If it is possible to make it modulair and how easy that is, is of course
another question.

Just my thought
