    Calling C# code from VisualBasic

    I'm developing an application for a PocketPC using VisualBasic.NET . I would
    like to incorporate some code which is written in CSharp.NET. Is it possible
    to call C# code from a VB application? What methods could I use to
    accomplish this? Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

      Yes it is.

      The simplest would be to compile the C# code as a DLL, and then just
      reference it in your VB.NET application.

          Thanks for the speedy response. I'm actually including a DLL in my C#
          application. Would it cause problems if I compiled a project as a DLL if
          that project included another DLL itself?

              No - because it doesn't include a DLL, it just references it. Depending
              on what the VB.NET application does, that may need to reference the
              extra DLL too.
