  >> I did not use web service on VB6.

  Then you've not done a real test, now have you

  You're the first person I've heard suggest that VB.NET is slower than VB6. I really doubt that is the case.

  not only start stage. After start, I just want to select records and display

  on screen. When I did on VB6 , it was just secods. But when I did

  on VB.net, it took minitus. I believe it may be caused by web service.

  I did not use web service on VB6. Whatever reason, our customer do not want a new application much slower than old one.

  My company is still using VB6 for window based application. My boss is pushing us to upgrade .Net. He thought it will be used as both window and Web applcations after upgrade. I tried a small VB.net program (using web service, window based), and surpised to find it is slower than my previous VB6 one. I am wondering C#.net could be better or something wrong with VB.net

  C# is the same speed as VB.NET. However, a .NET app is slow to startup, because it needs to be compiled into native code. Perhaps this is the speed difference you noted

  Microsoft will be supporting VB.NET for a long time, from what I can see.

  >>I heard big companies more like c#.ner than vb.net

  Yes, You are true, Because of its elegance, type safety and C++ like language.

  If you are from C,C++ and Java , you will find no difference than editor with C#, if you are form VB You may be feel good @ VB.net.

  My personal suggestion is go for C#

  C# can be considered a mixture of VB and Java, so you might want to lean towards C#.

  I really have no idea, you should perhaps check local newpapers to see which is advertised for more. I would guess that a lot of companies would prefer C#, here where I live, no-one uses/advertises for VB.NET. But I'm told in some areas, the reverse is true.

  I have a little expreience on Java, and strong on VB6. It seems equal diffucult

  for me to update VB.net or C#.net. I am wondering which one MS support in the near

  future Otherwise if I take time to move on VB.net , maybe it will live a couple of years, then I have to go back to C#.net .

  in .NET world, C# has more followers than VB.NET, but classic VB does have its own cult. 

  Check out the jobs advertised in your area and then decide which will be best for you.

   If you know Java, C# would be a very easy migration for you

  Yeah, I agree. Everyone assumed that C# was C++ like, I'd say it's more Java like.

  I did do the test. I selected recordes and displayed on screen with ODBC directly on Vb6.

  In Vb.net, I added web service as middle layer, but did for same purpose.

  I guess web service casued the problem.
