Visual Basic 2005

[Bruce]

I've had VB5, VB6, and VB 2005 on the same machine for a long time. No
problems.

Thanks Bruce,

Thats what I wanted to hear

Time to take the plunge then.

I don't think you'll have too many problems, VB 2005 is an entirely new breed of beast

Thats the bit that is worrying me. EVERYTHING about it looks different so a whole new language to learn !!!!

Full on Object Orientated Programming from what I've heard. Inheritance, polymorphism (the ability to process an object by its type rather than its reference), no longer a procedural language where the user controls the program, instead now like the rest where the program controls the user. Have fun!
