VB.NET has a converter built into it. You do have to fix the errors, but the converter labels them.

If you don't understand them, this may be difficult. One of the first rules of programming is to understand the language and procedures.

If you have problems, post the errors here and we can try to help you fix them. If you can figure out the error, but don't know the solution, We can helpyou with that also.

Thanks, Prito,
the first error/Warning which i have seen is:
'UPGRADE_ISSUE: COMSVCSLib.AppServer .GetObjectContext was not upgraded. Click for more: 'ms-help://MS.VSCC.v80/dv_commoner/local/redirect.htm?keyword="CC4C7EC0-C903-48FC-ACCC-81861D12DA4A"'

while there is this line of Code: objcontext = GetObjectContext

i tried to get the DLL from System32 folder, but it was not accepting reference, then i tried to add services. i really don't know...how to solve or what is the alternative of this...how could i proceed further..?:(

I'm going to refer you to these pages.

Ozzie Rules Blogging : Visual Studio 2005 Upgrading COM+ Components? (http://blogs.msdn.com/charles_sterling/archive/2005/01/05/346867.aspx)

CodeProject: Converting a VB6 gdiplus project to .net. (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/vb/Converting_VB6_to_net.aspx)

It looks like they've already done what you're trying to do. I got this by googling the GUID that you posted (CC4C7EC0-C903-48FC-ACCC-81861D12DA4A).

I'd work more on this for you, but I've got a dentist's appointment in a few minutes :mad:

that person has written this:
CONCLUSION

CONVERSION WIZARD = BAD NEWS
TOTAL REWRITE = GOOD NEWS
