Hi Kevin,

I doubt if there are courses for VFP developer wishing to move to VB.NET however there are many courses for VB 6 programmers wishing to upgrade to VB.NET. If you have any experience of VB6 then these courses should be fine.

I completed a VB.NET course recently and found it to be pretty straightforward. I had been evaluating and toying with VB.NET for a while so the material wasn't brand new to me however the course pulled all the pieces together and I left the course feeling much more confident about .NET.

I found the Microsoft Press book "Visual Basic.NET Step by Step" an excellent introduction. The Wrox "Professional" series of books are more advanced and are also excellent: "Professional VB.NET", and "Professional ADO.NET". Specific subjects are dealt with by more books by Wrox : "VB.NET Remoting", "VB.NET Scalability" and (my favourite) "VB.NET Class Design".

Regards,

Liam
