    Microsoft Interop Forms Toolkit 2.0

    This is a toolkit for migrating VB6 apps to .NET - anybody used this? Does it work well?

    I don't think it's worth doing it at all - it's a waste of time the way I see it.
    You won't be able to migrate your entire VB6 project to .Net ayway so why not start brand new and clean in VB.Net?

    Rhino this is a method of wraping your .Net code to allow it to be run by VB6 only not migrating the VB6 app to .Net. All though I do agree with you it is a better option to move directly into .Net it might be a way to do it in a phased method.

    I thought it is a way to utilize .Net controls and some other .Net functionality in your VB6 project.
    In any case it's useless for serius development.
