Calling C# code from VisualBasic

[SkyRender]

I'm developing an application for a PocketPC using VisualBasic.NET. I would
like to incorporate some code which is written in CSharp.NET. Is it possible
to call C# code from a VB application? What methods could I use to
accomplish this? Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

The simplest would be to compile the C# code as a DLL, and then just
reference it in your VB.NET application.
Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

Thanks for the speedy response. I'm actually including a DLL in my C#
application. Would it cause problems if I compiled a project as a DLL if
that project included another DLL itself?

No - because it doesn't include a DLL, it just references it. Depending
on what the VB.NET application does, that may need to reference the
extra DLL too.
