Actually I don't much like it anymore. Believe it or not you get used to not having it rather quickly. I mean it's nice and all but then you run into some problems related to the fact that you are actually running your app via the VS.exe and that causes some trouble.

actually i think .net is so cool,
and superior to VS6 in that you make a single
project with more than one language.
but the various bugs and the inability to
"edit and continue" (which is an important debugging feature)
are its only flows.
the extra complexity in vb, although a disadvantage in general
still gives advantage enough to compensate for that.

You should move to .Net as soon as possible.

Bugs I haven't seen. Edit and continue I never used anyway.

Edit and Continue is helpful in my opinion espically when working with big projects that shows loads of data (from file or db) . Here you can just dubug the error and resume instead of reloading everything from the beginning . Anybody knows if this feature is in C# also ??
