SharpDevelop comes with a converter.

There are converters available on WWW, example:

Thanks.
What do you mean SharpDevelop ? Is it in VS 2008 ? sample ?

I will look also at the link you gave.

Thanks

It is an alternative IDE for C# and VB.NET programming.

Open source.

I will look also at the link you gave.

Does SharpDevelop convert also the resources (such as myform.resx) ?
or all the form controls on it (as I see on designer) ?

Does this convert every syntax ?

Thanks

 

[Mr. X.]

OK.
I have installed also the SharpDevelop (Version 3,build 2970)
Tools - > convert code to : is disabled.

Thanks

You have to open the project/solution, then open a class/module/file for
viewing, then select Tools > Convert code to > C#. This is done one file
at a time.

Thanks.
It may help.
It's not one to one, but obviously helps a lot.

Thanks

 

[Mr. X.]

Well.
Too much work it leaves me.
Isn't any easiest way to convert ?

Of course, but you'll have to pay.

In my experience it does a decent job for most code.

I don't think those need conversion!

or all the form controls on it (as I see on designer) ?

Unlike VB6 the form code in VB.NET is visible and can
be converted as well.

Does this convert every syntax ?

Usually it does.

I sometimes changes a few things because I prefer them differently.

But I am sure that it is possible to write code that it can not
convert properly.
