It's not that it's really bad, but until you get that code worked out, with all the references that go in front of a variable, say, or where to put global variables, or the syntax in a sub or function, or how to call another form, it can be a pain. But once you've done it once, and all your squiggly lines are gone, you can do it many times after that.

There's definitely a learning curve with .NET object orientation, but it DOES get much easier after a while.
