VC.Net is like VC6, except with extra projects for managed programs.

Its a lot harder to use than VC6 as its not as neat and quite a few options are just convoluted. I've found a few bugs in it, fortunately nothing too serious... There are no updates for it yet.

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...

I've played with Visual Studio.NET (BETA RELEASE), there are a few key points that will throw you:-

1 - In VB.Net, Property Get, Set and Let have now changed to a more robust method of object development.

2 - The : symbol no longer works for code splitting, so backwards compatibility can be a pain, lots of code changes etc.

3 - VS.Net now has a completely new Foundation Class Library for doing practically anything you need under the sun but it's a bitch to learn

4 - C# is almost, but not quite, like Java. Support for Garbage collection and all that jive.

Other than that, if you've got the dosh and it meets your requirements, go for it. I would suggest though that alot of developers still use VS6. I still do.
