Microsoft Bridging VB6 And .NET Forms

0 views

A new toolkit from Microsoft will allow VisualBasic 6 developers to craft .Net WinForms that can be displayed in a VB6 application. The Interop Forms Toolkit noted on the Toolkit's page how it would benefit those developers: This toolkit helps you bring the power of .NET to your existing VB6 applications, by allowing them to display .NET WinForms from within the same application. Instead of upgrading the entire code base, these applications can now be extended one form at a time. The goal is a phased upgrade, with production releases at the end of each iteration containing both VB6 and VB.NET forms running in the same VB6 .exe process. As expected, this requires the .NET Framework 2.0, Visual Studio 2.5 Standard or better, and Visual Basic 6. Microsoft's Rob Caron
