    Re: C# Vs VB.net

    Aside from a horrible number of typos...the answer is "that depends"...

    1) C# is NOT a "Microsoft LAnguage". It is controlled by an ECMA specification, and any vendor is free to write any compliant compiler.

    2) VB.NET (actually all of VB) IS a Microsoft Language, and they have ownership.

    3) Both C# and VB.NET compile to MSIL. Other vendors have created runtimes capable of supporting MSIL (e.g. Mono)

    In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; in practice there is.

    MSIL = Microsoft Intermedial Language. The output of EVERY .Net compiler. As the MSIL code is loaded it is compiled to actual Machine Code by the JIT (Just In Time) Compiler.

    Something which is targeted for and will run as a NATIVE application on any

    Something which is target as x86 will always be a 32 bit process (which CAN run on 64 bit machines)

    Something which is targeted as x64 will always be a 64 bit process (which can NOT run on a 32 bit machine).
