Allan;

One of our options as pointed out by Ken Levy and others is to use C# for class libraries, etc. and VB.NET for the UI. That is something that we will explore. In the end we want to be on the same page - which for our orginization, will be a first! :)

Thank you for your input. Comments like yours give additional weight to which direction to choose.
