    VB.Net Rules!

    I love VB.Net! The next version is going to be even better. I'm sorry if I
    offended anyone with my rants. Please forgive me. OK?

    You couldn't be more right Master. VB.Net is the ultimate tool for windows
    programming. VB 6 is worthless. Yeah, you heard me right.

        I love VB.NET also, but you ask to be forgiven about the rants. What if it
        wasn't OK?
        You did ask!

              I miss VB6 and "classic" ADO ... but I aint going back. There are too many
              new tools that make my life easier. I'm sure that was part of the Microsoft
              master plan. However, if you like VB.Net, you would probably like C# even
              more. The hands, wrists, and bursitis appreciate not having to type as much.

                Be careful here, there is a Larry Linson who was/is an MS Access MVP,
                and Aaron has been trolling under Larry Linson Jr. Whether or not the
                other poster name Larry Linson is just another alias or not I'm not
                sure. Also, as far as I can tell, Aaron and Master Programmer are two
                different people, though for a while they joined together in .Net
                trashing.

                As far as the OP goes, given your history many (including myself) are
                skeptical at best at your statements. I will however give you the
                benefit of the doubt and forgive the previous trolling and welcome you
                back into the newsgroup. Just behave this time, I'd hate to have to
                plonk you again...

                Thanks,

                  Re: VB.Net Rules!

                  so.. c# is the solution to VB.net code verbosity?

                  I thought that VB6 was.

                  I am not going to embrace dotnet until the next version; I've been
                  saying that for several releases now.

                  I just can't deal with a bloated IDE that crashes on me.
                  I refuse to do it.

                    Bruce;

                    only in your own twisted paranoid universe do I deserve to be
                    mentioned in the same class as MP.

                    MP is a genius; he should be Sr Management at Microsoft.

                    AS SHOULD I.

                      Re: VB.Net Rules!

                      and for the record, .NET trashing is APPROPRIATE because it is still a
                      subset of vb6.

                      and Microsoft doesn't explain it that way.

                        I would say that is one of the biggest advantages, but not the only one. C#
                        is much more concise -- if you can deal with all the brackets { }. Some
                        developers claim that C# is actually more understandable ... instead of Dim
                        strThing as String, you have string strThing, the idea being that in C# it
                        is not only less verbose, but has a natural flow. Semantics, I gotta use
                        both, so it's a non-issue, except that I sometimes forget how to do
                        something in one language that I can do in another.

                          Re: VB.Net Rules!

                          how can you get more concise than DIM?

                          fuck brackets; I won't hit SHIFT every 30 seconds

                          those dipshits should have looked at a keyboard before screwing VB and
                          putting all their efforts into C#

                          c# is for fags that missed the 90s because they were stuck in C++ and
                          Java still-- without a decent IDE.

                          Meanwhile, we were the WORLDS MOST POPULAR LANGAUGE AND MS KILLED IT
                          WITH NO VIABLE OR PRACTICAL REPLACEMENT

                              Re: VB.Net Rules!

                              Seth,

                              Again, I stand corrected. :) I was simply attempting to use some logical
                              reasoning behind the post I made. The original post, by Larry Linson, stated
                              how very much that person LOVES VB.Net. The very next post, by one susiedba,
                              was also overflowing with praise for the .Net language, followed by another
                              post by another one of the unnamed one's personalities stepping right behind
                              the others. The only time ANY posts about VB.Net by 'the one who will remain
                              unnamed' have not contained any vitriolic, abusive or filthy language has
                              been when the poster has a conversation with himself. Therefore, by logical
                              definitions, he was trolling in the opposite direction.

                              I am sorry that you feel that I am less than honorable in my intentions on
                              this newsgroup. I do tend to get a bit too involved in things sometimes, but
                              my whole intention in coming to this newsgroup was to try to learn
                              something. If I have overstayed my welcome, so be it. Thank you for your
                              graciousness, but I shall no longer post on this board.

                              Be careful here, there is a Larry Linson who was/is an MS Access MVP,
                              and Aaron has been trolling under Larry Linson Jr. Whether or not the
                              other poster name Larry Linson is just another alias or not I'm not
                              sure. Also, as far as I can tell, Aaron and Master Programmer are two
                              different people, though for a while they joined together in .Net
                              trashing.

                              As far as the OP goes, given your history many (including myself) are
                              skeptical at best at your statements. I will however give you the
                              benefit of the doubt and forgive the previous trolling and welcome you
                              back into the newsgroup. Just behave this time, I'd hate to have to
                              plonk you again...
