Are you using .NET 1.1 or 2.0? I believe that namespace was added in.NET
2.0.

What do you need out of it?

Microsoft.Visau lBasic.dll

I have read a number of resources that explain that the MyServices found in VB.NET2005 can be used in C# by adding a reference to Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll and then using the Microsoft.VisualBasic.MyServices namespace (one example is http://winfx.msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dv_csref/html/e7152414-0ea5-4c8e-bf02-c8d5bbe45ff4.asp).

Used VB.NET (on my client PC) to convert VB6 executable to .NET executable. Placed the .exe file on a network drive on my server.

Having only recently migrated across from VB6 to VB.NET I'm still unsure whether or not I should be making (heavy) use of the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace in new applications. I've read a lot of posts in the (VB).Net newsgroups and seen just about all of the For and Against arguments i.e. not using it = not coding in VB.NET, not using it = good OO. I'm also aware of the difference between this namespace and the compatibility namespace....

I am under the impression they are obsolete methods included for backward compatibility. For instance is using filedatetime("c:\myfile.txt") still the accepted way of getting the date c:\myfile.txt was last modified? I see filedatetime is in the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace. Is there some dim file as new something dim lastchanged as date = file.datetime method we are supposed to use now?

I have two questions with regards to the LEFT function. I ran into a problem with the LEFT function today. I knew it was a valid Function, but when I tried to use it, it was getting interpreted as the LEFT location of a control or something like that, instead of the LEFT function. (I want to extract the left portion of a string). Anyway, I knew what I needed was to find out what IMPORTS I was missing. After finding a posting on MSDN that...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
