Any good VB.Net books for a VB6 programmer?
So, at last I have decided I should have a play with VB.Net and I'd like to have at least one VB.Net related book to use as a reference. Is there anything you would particularly recommend for someone moving from VB6 to VB.Net? I think it would suit my needs well to have a reference work that said things like "In VB6 you did this; in VB.Net you should use <whatever> instead...".
Sorry if this has all been dealt with before ... :D

I recommend you start with the labcasts first then get a book...?

Thanks for the suggestion. I am intrigued by the title of one of the Labcasts: "Incorporating Visual Basic .NET Windows Forms with Visual Basic 6 Applications". Does that really mean creating some kind of "hybrid" app? I thought Microsoft had long abandonned VB6 :confused:

I have 100 copies of "Visual Basic 2005 Jumpstart" and can't see that I need more than 99 so if you want to PM me your address I can send you one.
