Puzzled with Vb and Vb.Net

Raj · 10-29-2003, 04:30 AM

I already have an application running in Visual Basic 6.0 which is a Retail Application and uses a client and the Server to interact with each other and the server interacts with the database it is a tipical 3 tire client server application where the business logic is at the server side and the workstation use the client side of the application

the problem is

- I have been facing a lot of memory problems off and on on Vb 6.0 should I migrate to VB.Net...? or should i use good quality third party controls to reduce memory leaks...?

- Is it possible to have client running on VB 6.0 and server on Vb.net can they communicate with each other and how..?

Please Help

if u try to "migrate" to VB .NET there's a good chance u might bombard ur program with bugs since u have to change a lot of things in the code to suite VB .NET. now about ur second question, it depends on how u wanna communicate, if its based on a packet that is sent from one machine and received in another, then yes
