I tell you what... it was a marketing event... however, I never would have decided that I want to look at VJ++ for writting some components or the VI is the tool to use for our web based module.

So, my company may have saved me months of work by sending me to DevDays... cause, heck, we have VS6.0, so we might as well know what all the tools can do.

Like, the analyzer... I knew it was there, but didn't even know if it was worth looking at... Now, I know.
