    There is already a Visual Basic .NET forum on vbforums.com so why does this one exist too ?

    It creates confusion

    Calm down . My point is that this forum should be deleted for the same reason that you do not make two subs that do identically things.

    I don't live here any more.

    Both links point to the same forum. There is only one, just two different doors on the front. It's been discussed many times before and isn't liekly to change any time soon.

    * I don't respond to private (PM) requests for help. It's not conducive to the general learning of others.*
    * I also don't respond to friend requests. Save a few bits and don't bother. I'll just end up rejecting anyways.*

    They are both the same forum.

    The link in the "Visual Basic" section (rather than .Net) was added as new users of this site were posting .Net questions in the Classic VB section, and not getting answers (as well as annoying regular users by posting in the wrong place).
