  Do you have an example of what you won't be able to do?

  Example:
  

  
  Class1...
  Window1...
  

  
  SetProp Window1.hwnd,"CLASS",ObjPtr(Class1)
  

  
  ???Is this possible with VB.NET??? I dont think so!

  ... but as you're not going to be wanting to use windows API in VB.net, it shouldn't be a problem. Microsoft have basically made both c# and vb.net "safe" .... you can, however, I believe, get your hands on some pointers if you enable an unmanaged option for c# ....

  VB has a dependency runtime....!! With the next release of Windows, the .NET framework will be there by default anyway, so in effect there won't be a dependency runtime for c# and vb.net programs...

  Everybody knows that vb has a dependency runtime....
  (But with VB.NET,I have expected opposite situation!)
