Copy the code into a C# project and build it as a seperate assembly, then
just add a reference. The syntax difference between C# and VB.nET is
trivial...if you understand .NET and can implement it with VB.NET, trust me,
you can do it in C#. It'd be much much easier for a top notch VB.nET
programmer to learn C# than it would for a top notch VB6 programmer to learn
VB.NET
