While we all agree with you that C# would be the way to go IF you have to go .Net, the powers that be (in Denmark) have decreed that VB is the be all and end all and they can get heaps of cheap Indian labour to cut code in it :-(

If you have to move to .Net, why not do it properly and move to C#???

 

You really can't seriously talk about "future" development and VB.Net in the same sentence without someone choking on their lunch.

Hi All

 

I've been asked by a colleague for a recommendation for a training organisation (or trainer) to lead a team on the conversion from Delphi to .Net in the Auckland area.  While the team is screaming at the change, the organisation has decreed that future development will be in (groan) VB.Net

 

Most of the organisations advertising .Net training are offering courses for beginning developers while what is needed is cross training for experienced Delphi guys.  

 

Anyone have any recommendations (other than find another job)?

 

Stephen
