You may need to post this in the C# forum as well.
I don't know of any direct way, however, if the VB6 code works correctly, you could compile it as a DLL and add it to the references in your C# project.
You might already have solved it, but anyway: SharpDevelop has a build in option to convert vb.net to c# and c# to vb.net (okay, it's for the .net framework, but if you back-up your code, you can always try...). (I have the program installed but never used the option... so don't know how good it works...)
Oh, it's a free program...

That's cool, except the question was about VB6.

There is no easy way to "convert" from VB6 to any .Net Language. Since VB.Net is an object oriented language and VB6 is a linear language, you actually have to rewrite it.
The simplest thing to do is create one class in VB.Net and translate all of your VB6 functions into it. This is not easy and requires knowledge of VB.Net and the difference in syntax between VB6 and VB.Net
However, once its in VB.Net there are a few tools (e.g. SharpDevelop) that will translate to C# or other .Net languages (also not always perfectly and may require some manual fixes.)

Welcome to The Scripts genji.
The fruits of my Google search:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vbcon/html/vboriUpgradingFromVisualBasic60.asp
http://sharptoolbox.com/categories/code-converters-language-migration
http://www.artinsoft.com/pr_vbcompanion.aspx
From MSDN:
"Visual Basic .NET enables a fundamental shift from traditional Windows development to building next-generation Web and n-tier applications. For this reason, your code will need to be upgraded to take advantage of Visual Basic .NET.
"This happens automatically when you open a Visual Basic 6.0 project in Visual Basic .NET: the Upgrade Wizard steps you through the upgrade process and creates a new Visual Basic .NET project (your existing project is left unchanged). This is a one-way process; the new Visual Basic .NET project cannot be opened in Visual Basic 6.0."
There are some changes you will have to make before and after, however. It will definitely be work if you have lots of code.
This may not be what you want, but I was excited to found out another possibility for work. If you are interested in Java, and I will understand if you do not, you may consider converting to it, see if you like the results; for a certain amount of moola that is. Please understand I have yet to try this for work projects. My boss, hoeve, is very elated about the change since most of our applications are written in Java, I just happen to like VB more. Anyway, here:

Give both links a look. In a bit!

Does SharpDevelop work for the CompactFramework as well?
Thanks
Good web site to convert from Vb to C#
<link removed: not working>
It is absolutely possible to automatically convert VB6 directly to C#, automatically replace 3rd party COM with .NET classes, and even automatically convert ASP to ASP.NET. The little known secret is to use a conversion tool that you can customize to meet the unique needs of your source code and .NET development standards. Your results will not be 100% "perfect" on day-one, but then again neither will a hand rewrite. See samples and documentation at www.greatmigrations.com.
