    What version of VB to use

    I have a Microsoft Access 2013 App I will be converting to VB using Visual Studio Community 2015.

    Should I use Windows Forms Application or WPF Application and why?

    Below is a little about my project:

    I have some forms that do various standard database manipulations in SQL Server tables and also I need to query a web site and pass it some variables in the URL address and receive a text response back from the web site. The web site will also upload and download .cvs files. I also have a need to have the user pick a file using the windows file selector

    Given the above description what should I use? Also are there any free converters that will convert any of my Access things (forms and/or code) into the target VB?

    Re: What version of VB to use

    Your title question asks which version of VB to use but then your post asks nothing of the sort.
    You also asked your question in a VB6 section but you say you are using VB.Net so this is not VB6 related at all.

    Personally I would use Windows Forms but that is largely because that is what I am comfortable with.

    No there is no converter to convert Access forms and VBA macros to VB.Net application code.
    Always use [code][/code] tags when posting code.
