framework). VB.NET has been marketed by Microsoft as an updated version of
the previous Visual Basic on its .NET framework, but VB.NET is really just
C# with a slightly different syntax and fewer libraries. Migrating
existing code from Visual Basic to VB.NET is generally impractical because
VB.NET has a large number of unnecessary incompatibilities with Visual
Basic. Since VB.NET has essentially nothing to do with Visual Basic, a
well-known ex-Microserf suggested that VB.NET should have a completely
different name &#8212; Visual Fred. This rapidly caught on.</p></dd><div class="navfooter"><hr/><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="visionary.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="../V.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="VMS.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">visionary </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> VMS</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
