Hi,
Could anyone give me a quick synopsis of the differences, pros/cons, etc. between Visual Studio 6 and .NET?
I'm not really looking for anything more than a quick overview. I've visited Microsoft's site for .NET, but I'm pretty new to the programming game (still in school, actually) so the mass of info there was a bit overwhelming.
Thanks,
Jeff
A couple of differences, there are alot more but someone else hopefully fills in:
* VS .NET using the .NET framework, a framework that has to be installed on the computers running .NET apps. This contains all Namespaces and Classes of .NET.
* A lot more is added into the framework to prohibit the use of API calls and stuff (still have to use them sometimes :))
* VB is now "fully" object orientated.
