As Les and some of the other chimed in, Instant VB.NET is actually something that we use to convert projects over when we post them ourselves. This is a great tool to have around. That being said, though, I will try to be more in tune with this in the future.

Thanks Les, will keep this info safe, for when I decide to jump into C# seriously.

I just looked and it is only $179 too for Instant C#. 

I also checked to see what Les uses to show code in both VB and C# on his website articles and noticed that he mentions Tangible Software Solutions on his website as well.  It must be good!

Thanks

Hi all,

   TangibleSoftwareSolutions.com sells Instant C# and Instant VB, software to convert VB to C# and vice-versa. I've used it for years, even though I can write in both languages, and it does a remarkable job. VBConversions.net sells a slightly more expensive product, but Instant C# does a great job.

Me too , but every where I turn, I see more and more C# samples, books, articles than VB.NET, probably with VS2010 will be easier to start working with C# even though I do like VB a lot (humm, I never though I would say that, being a VFP developer for so many years )

I miss sample code in VB.NET. Very much.

I find I have to convert everything manually (great for learning, bad for productivity) since the converters always get something wrong.

Yeah, Thanks Edhy.

Thanks Edhy!

Hi Trent,



Thanks a lot for this sample. Since it is in C# I took the liberty to manually translate it to VB and it was a good learning experience, specially with the VB equivalent function for the C# Lock.



I simply added a VB project to the current solution and some copy/paste .



Enjoy!



P.S.

To save some space you may want to remove your zip above since mine have the C# as you posted plus the VB.

Nothing is coming immediately to mind here, but the whole purpose of the splash screen is to run threaded. So it sounds like there could be a treading issue within your configuration.
