How to Convert VB6 to VB 2010
The VB.NET 2010 Visual Studio application includes an upgrade wizard, so you can automatically convert Visual Basic 6 (VB6) code to VB.NET. The conversion tool updates functions, syntax and references to any DLL files. Most programmers review the code and edit some changes, but the conversion wizard marks each section change with comments, so you can review the conversion code.
