As I said earlier, I have no experience of VB Express.

I tried VB.net when it first came out and couldnt get any of my existing VB programs to convert to dotNet as they all contained COM ports.

I had the same lack of success with ASP.net as well. I had written many web based applications in good old ASP but someone higher up at work decided that our latest project should be written in ASP.net as a "learning opportunity" despite having a tight deadline.

I knocked up a rough and ready but fully functional demo of the application using ASP in about half a day and after the functionality and screen layout was approved I set about writing the "proper" application in ASP.net. As it was a learning curve it obviously took longer but most of the functionallity was there within a couple of weeks. One bit however was impossible to get working in ASP.net despite about 10 people in the team all trying to find out ways of achieving it.

I dont know why they have to keep changing things when there was nothing wrong with the previous way of doing it.

If it aint broke..... dont try to fix it!!!
