Okay, all you VB6 developers--time's up. As of March 2005,
Microsoft no longer supports this version of Visual Basic. And you
can't blame them. Three years ago, they introduced the .NET
Framework--an elegant, powerful platform--along with the new
component-based VB.NET language. But roughly five million of you
decided to stick with VB6, mostly to maintain legacy Windows and
COM projects.
Now, with the upcoming release of VB 2005, Microsoft has several
attractive reasons to upgrade that you'll find hard to resist,
including the return of some VB6 features. And we have the perfect
book to help you make the conversion: "Visual Basic 2005
Jumpstart," Now, you can test-drive the beta version of VB 2005
with three hands-on projects that enable you to learn the syntax of
this new language quickly.
VB 2005 not only lets you convert the bulk of your existing VB6
code, but offers several familiar features, such as compile-and-run
debugging, new MyClasses that simplify use of .NET libraries and
frameworks, lots of IDE support for Windows, web and mobile GUI
development, and data access controls that closely resemble what
you use now. The real plus is that you'll be using these features
with the .NET platform, which is more secure, less complex than
COM, and offers OneClick deployment.
"Visual Basic 2005 Jumpstart" lets you get the feel of this
platform for building smart/rich Windows Forms clients, ASP.NET web
applications, and web services. Author Wei-Meng Lee, a Microsoft
.NET MVP, veteran O'Reilly author and frequent contributor to the
O'Reilly Network, has put together three useful test-drive
projects, complete with code samples, that let you develop:
A personallibrary Windows application
A Web-based shopping cart application
A stock enquiry Web Service
Our jumpstart guide is the quick, painless way to migrate from
VB6 to VB 2005, and the perfect training manual for moving your
organization to the more robust, dynamic and secure world of
.NET.
