Thanks, for feedback.

The really, really interesting feature of Delphi's .Net Stuff is that it
well illustrates what MS could have, might have, done with VB if they had
wanted to.

Yes. They could have done that. But IMHO it wouldn't have been that simple
as it has been for the Delphi group. VB6 is very COM centric and

Whaaaa??? VB is COM under the hood but it is *not* COM to the developer.
The language itself, along with the product as a whole existed quite nicely
before it was COM. It didn't become COM until VB4. Hell, much of the
language moved forward nicely since CP/M. We thought we had some problems
at VB1 and VB4... until our recent recalibration on the definition of
"problem".
