Required Migration Suggestions from VB6.0+Mssql7.0 ERP Solution

My Company Got an ERP Solution developed using VB6.0 and Ms Sql Server 7.0.
At Present we are facing Manpower Problem to work with VB6.0 and some Technical Limitations. Can You Suggest New Environment for Migrating the Same ERP.

Place an ad, get a programmer, pay them well, and all will be good. As for the upgrade path that M$ has chosen for you, that would be VS.NET and at least SQL 2k5 but if you search hard enough, you will find the VB6.0 programmer you need... :)



Good Luck

VB6 can interact with the web and you are not tied to any technology to do so... PHP, ASP, ASP.NET, and so on, just so long as you set up the other technology in such a way that any user could use it. M$ on the other hand with their .NET tech want you to tie it all in together with ASP.NET>VB.NET>C#.NET so that you are tied to their platform... and as much as I want to advocate for vb6, I have seen it's harbinger on the horizon and here in the next few years you will hear vb6's death rattle as its death knell passes us old timers by...

While you might be able to adapt VB6 to today's technology, wouldn't it be better of to star with today's technology? Use VB.Net or C# with whatever backend DB that you want.
