Visual Basic .NET
Visual Basic .NET ( VB.NET ) is a multi-paradigm , object-oriented programming language , implemented on the .NET Framework . Microsoft launched VB.NET in 2002 as the successor to its original Visual Basic language. Although the ".NET" portion of the name was dropped in 2005, this article uses "Visual Basic [.NET]" to refer to all Visual Basic languages released since 2002, in order to distinguish between them and the classic Visual Basic . Along with Visual C# , it is one of the two main languages targeting the .NET framework.

Based on Microsoft's Visual Basic (VB), Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is a computer language that can be viewed as an evolutionary development from VB version 6.0 and earlier. The changes in the computer language are targeted to use Microsoft's .NET Framework and to bridge the gap between it and other .NET languages such as C# . Visual Basic .NET is, in general, syntactically similar to Visual Basic, but includes object-oriented features and an object hierarchy based on the .NET framework that makes it a more complex system than other variants of BASIC . A migration wizard is available in Visual Studio .NET, although many features must be recoded by hand due to the extensive changes in the object library. |

Deriving from Microsoft's Visual Basic (VB), Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an improvement from classic VB. The enhancements of the computer language are targeted to use the Microsoft's .NET framework and to bridge the gap towards the C# . All the new languages tend to have the same set of core syntactic features while varying in the form so people can move with more ease from the old version. Visual Basic .NET is a complex system compared to other variants of BASIC . |
