A Petition for the Development of Unmanaged Visual Basic

What Is It ?

By providing a new version of a COM-based Visual Basic within the Visual Studio IDE, Microsoft will help maintain the value of its clients' existing code, demonstrate its ongoing commitment to the core Visual Basic language, and greatly simplify the adoption of VB.NET by those that wish to do so.This mirrors the approach taken for the C language and enhances the viability of VB.NET while preserving customers' assets. By continuing development of both managed and unmanaged Visual Basic, Microsoft will demonstrate their commitment to their entire developer community.
