    VB6 To C#

    I've been programming in VB6 for quite a few years now and I would like to learn to program in C#.

    Are there any tutorials out there on learning C# while having VB6 experience?

    The two language is completely different, one thing you can bring to your C# learning is your logical thinking. There are downloadable samples from MS Site where you could fiddle with...

    "The two language is completely different, one thing you can bring to your C# learning is your logical thinking."

    That pretty much sums it up. I too came from VB6 and moving to .NET/c# wasn't even in the same ball park. Logic is the only thing and even then that's pushing it because what would seem logically correct to do in VB6 can be done differently in c#.

    Moral of story, pretty much forget everything you know about VB6. Spend as long as you need to really understand the .NET framework and the VS IDE. The syntax in c# is not difficult to pickup at all. Couple days at most and you'll feel at home.

    It's learning .NET that's the hard part...I started a few weeks ago and am still pretty lost in some areas but generally things are starting to come together.

    .NET is so huge everytime you think you're close to really understanding the framework you learn there's something new.
    The human brain cannot hold all of the knowledge that exists in this world, but it can hold pointers to that knowledge.
