Building an applet to deploy SQL Express

I'm looking to build an applet to install SQL Server Express onto
client machines.

I've gone here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...LExCustApp.asp

and there's some code to enable one to build an app. However, it's in
C# and there's no VB equivalent provided (Bad Microsoft!)

Anyhoo, as an exercise I've managed to leverage most of it into VB but
it's the last part that I can't figure out -

class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
etc.

How do I do this in VB?

Many thanks

I agree.

I mean seriously.. what C++ _FAG_ came up with the idea for C# in the
first place?

VB6 won the war-- the worlds most popular language.
And then Microsoft just committed hari-kari; they dove onto their own
sword.
