Be aware that moving VB6 APP to .NET app (whether it is web app or win form
app) most likely means "re-writing". Classical VB is so different from .NET
(#C or VB.NET), especially, when it is database app: ADO.NET is completely
different from ADO in VB6 on concept level (sure, you can still use ADO
(classical) in .NET app, but then why convert it?).
It only makes sense to re-do the app in .NET if you have a long wish list of
improvement for that app and the ROI (return of investment) is worth doing
it.
