Everyone,

I am currently working with vb6 but I would like to upgrade to the latest and greatest version of vb. However, I am not sure what to go to. I know the vb.net is newer but is it the lastest? Also what about visual studio? It looks like visual studio has several different languages in it but I am having trouble finding info that compares and contrasts vb.net and visual studio.

If anyone has a recomendation I would appreciate it. In terms of what type of programming I will be doing, I do a lot of database work and I would like to start getting into PDA software. I think this last requirement forces me to visual studio but again, I am not sure.

Any recomendations would be helpful
