    I'd say to just pick one forum and post your question. You can always convert the code to the other language easily or ask if they can provide both code examples for you.

    Basic simple code converter.

    Yes I know about code converters, but at times they seem to be helpless. For example, using WMI scripts dynamically. The result that this converter is showing, gives an error.

    It's just a small example, since I know how to use WMI in VB, but sometimes I become just curious how to make a particular VB code work in C# environment.

    OK, say I asked a question in VB, and later I tried the code in C# but even after much research I could not make it work, can I post a similar question in C#?

    I think my question is more elaborated this time (hopefully).

    Well its generally frowned upon to post duplicate threads even if after a period of time has elapsed in the first location before posting in the other.

    Generally speaking both the VB.NET and C# forums always get threads answered. John is a good testiment to that

    More people post in VB.Net then C# so I'd post in VB.Net, but also mention your other requirement.

    I agree with MartinLiss - post in the VB.NET and list what you want. If after posting, you only get a VB answer, then post a follow up in the C# forum.
