  New feature(main): Real Object Oriented ...
  The change to .net (not big difference between vb and c# (other than sintax- my opinion), so I say .net) is not difficult with some OOP notions (my opinion)...
  

  
  Another change is the user interface...man...that rules!! (my opinion)
  

  
  

  
  Xcuse my english

  hey,
  

  
  Well some of the major changes are some kool enhancements which yuo woud like.
  

  
  remember doing this in VB6?
  

  
  intInteger = intInteger +1
  

  
  Well now its convienently:
  intInteger += 1
  

  
  Everything in .NET is a Class ... the new IDE is very awesome and one handy addition is the TODO function which will add some text to project so you wont forget what you need to do.
  

  
  Another welcome change is teh code #Region which will shorten your codeview so you can Region off sections.
  

  
  i am definetly sure you'll love the new IDE. the AutoSyntaxing is Improved and you wont get anymore of those messageboxes shovied in your face cause you wrote a string without the & operator. a convienent line under the illegal syntax is all it takes.
  

  
  I can write alot more but its Friday and I'm at school, i cant think that much cause its early morning, when i get home I'll write up some more infromation....
