Oh Yeah? I don't believe you.

The only way you can prove it is by going away and never coming back.

If we hear from you again in here we will have to assume that you
cannot infact stay away from VB.NET.

lol.

There is no reason to be rude, I am just trying to help aspiring
programmers by giving them a real picture of Microsoft and why they
should not use the software.

If you have nothing constructive to add I suggest you keep your ugly
mouth firmly closed.

Actually I am thinking of creating an open source project (in vb 6.0)
to completely remove any version of the framework, VS and .NET
programs.  It will remove files, clean the registry and obliterate any
trace of anything .NET. First I will copy all files to one location
then perform a low level format on them.

If anyone is interested in being involved just drop me a line.

Go one step further and take it all the way back to DOS.  :-)
Hope your emailbox doesn't get too overloaded from all the responses
to your project.

Dear Master Programmer,

You are in the wrong newsgroup mate.  The guys who work with VB do it for money,
not because it's considered to be cool, but because industry pays us to get solutions in
hours rather than in weeks or months.  From an industry point of view, using .Net saves
companies money and thats it.

From a programmer view, it has a decent tools, a good debugger and runtime errors
and bugs which surface after a rollout can normally be rectified within a few hours.  The
code that takes 300 lines of VB (or turning to the APi), can be done in one line using a
Common Control with .Net.

If you want a cool VB6 project, develop a module that dispatches instructions to
multiple CPU's, if they are present, which integrates transparently to our projects.

;-)

Cheers.

Actually a better idea is to create an open source project to randomly
damage parts of the framework, then fix them again after a short period
of time.  But I guess as the framework was developed my MS there is no
need to, as they have that covered already.
