C# Vs. VB.NET

orianavim

Hi , I've been develop in C# more than two years and recently I’ve started to ask my self what is the real difference between C# and VB.NET ? Does anyone can refer me to a good article which can explains me what is the real differences (other than the syntax). As far as I know, they both eventually decoded to the CLR code, but i believe that there are some more differences. Regards, Ori.

Hi, I thought that .NET is the same apart from the syntax. Code can be translated very easily from any .NET language because the idea of .NET framework is for each language to have ease of use and the same amount of power, VB.NET, C#.NET, C++.NET and J#.NET have diffrent syntax but they have the same power and then code can be translated easily to another .NET language. Am I wrong here or is there another diffrence because I have been coding in >NET for a while now and thats the only diffrence that I have noticed.
