Moving from VB6 To VC#

[locohacker]

Hi all just have a simple questions before I move from VB6 to VC# .net, will people need to download extra run files in order to use my programs and is it really worth it

But the main reason why I want to move from VB6 To C# is because people always need to download run files for the vb6 programs

Thanks

C# requires the Net Framework installed in order to run, and produces a nasty message if it isn't. This may not be a problem in the future as more computers are going to be using it.

Not in C++ no. But in C++.NET you still need the .NET framework.

Then it isn't C++ .NET...

hmm so if you compile something non-.NET with vs2003, it will run on older comps? vs2003 didnt update any c++ libraries? (I totally dont know anything about the world of c++ as you can guess )

Correct. If you don't use the .NET framework in C++, then you don't have to redistrebute them. Just like for me when I do DirectX. If I use DX then I have to distrebute the runtimes just in case. But if I don't use DX then I don't have to distribute the runtimes..
