DSJ was right. In Visual Studio 2005, indeed there is proper operator overloading.
I recommend on the book in
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/whidbey/introto2005/
which you can download for free. In the second chapter it is all explained.
You will have proper operator overloading for arithmetical operators, and logical operators. Plus you will have operator overloading for CType. And the cool new operators of IsTrue, IsFalse and Not.
