    discouraging link



    Is MS phasing out VB.Net? This is discouraging to us vb.net programmers.

    thanks!

    I don't think they are.

    The real power with .NET is the framework, not the language. It is trivial
    to port 95% of C# to CB and vice versa - it's just very straight forward.
    If you know one of those, it's just a matter of getting used to the syntax
    in order to learn the other. It should take a week or 2 to get comfortable
    with the other language.

      The statistics are not significant because the method desribed in the legend
      doesn't return significant results, especially not for language names like
      "VB.NET", "Visual Basic .NET", because often the terms "VB .NET" and "VB"
      are used to refer to this language.

        Param,

        -----------------------------------------------------------
        The ratings are based on the world-wide availability of skilled engineers,
        courses and third party vendors. The popular search engines Google, MSN, and
        Yahoo! are used to calculate the ratings
        -----------------------------------------------------------

        I have once read that in Calfornia once is proven with a kind of a method
        like this that babies come from cabbage.

        I am sorry, I don't believe that.
