    Troubling dilemma

    I am most vexed. I have to make a tough decision.

    Stick with VB.Net or move to C#?

    I'm not bad at VB.Net so I'd be leaving a lot behind, and I have not programmed in C# for over a year. I reckon I'd be able to pick up C# quickly but only at the cost of letting my VB go rusty.

    What do you lot think?

    This troubles me because the most recent version of Visual Studio has updated Vb so much that it is much closer to C# than it has ever been.

    Do any of you use BOTH VB.Net and C# regularly at a high level?

    Yes.

    I would have said less, but I needed at least four characters apparently

    I'd stay with Vb .Net because the 2005 versions sounds like its changed alot.

    There is now more in vb.net 2005 than there is in C# 2005. More code snippets and the "My" namespace, to name a few.

    Yeah, it seems that way. I think the intellisense is better in VB but I'll learn both anyway because I'm so amazing.

    And humble, too. Oh, and fat. Don't forget fat.
