Calling C# from VB.Net

Re: Calling C# from VB.Net

You first have to build the C# code in its own project into a *.dll file and
then you set reference to it in the calling VB.NET project. You cannot use
different language in the same project.

Re: Calling C# from VB.Net

Put the C# file into another project (class library) and add a project
reference in the VB.NET web app. You cannot mix languages in a single
project (at least not until VS.NET 2005).

RE: Calling C# from VB.Net

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for your post. As suggested by Norman and Gregory, you will need to
put C# file in a separate project (class library). In addition, please
refer to the following MSDN articles for the sample and detailed
information:

Cross-Language Inheritance

http://www.vbip.com/books/1861004915/chapter_4915_12.asp

C# and the .NET Platform - Chapter 6

http://www.codeproject.com/books/1893115593_6.asp

Hope this helps.
