You mean to make it easier to port a VB6 app to VB.NET ?
TBH, I've no idea - I've never tried doing that......
Update: Isn't there a namespace for VB6 stuff ?

I'm asking the question...since you seem to be the expert on VB developers. <s>

Piece of advice - apply that "TBH" and go back and read your inital statement, and consider retracting it - you're too smart to make statements like that.
