no msvbvmxx.dll !?

My question is that; As I know, a project/source code written in any language (Visual C++, Visual Basic,...etc) is complied by Visual Studio.NET, first converted to a common language, then machine language.

Is that mean; for example if we code our application in Visual Basic.NET , when it is compiled, it will not use a msvbvmxx.dll (ex : msvbvm70.dll), instead of this will it use the dll of the common language ?

Thanks in advance

Sorry, but .NET is gay

goudabuddha, you better stop this. Do not reply if you don't have any arguments about the topic. If you do, let everyone hear them and stop this nonsense.

You're right he shouldn't have listened to my suggestion.
