Would it be any different from the other development methodologies?
All .NET languages are compiled to MSIL before execution.
That means that the MSIL for code written in any .net language would be same, and as such is possible to convert from one to another.
It is even possible to write your application partially in one language and partially in another, since both will compile to a common intermediate language at runtime.
But conversion from VB6 to .NET has nothing common in between. VB6 is compiled to binary form while vb.net is compiled to IL. That's why it is not possible to easily convert from one to another.
