There isn't much of a relationship. There are windows applications (created with either with the VB.NET or C# language) and there are web applications (again created in either language).
You can't create a windows application then "convert" it to a web application without rewriting it as there are lots of differences - why would you want to do that anyway?

Need help finding an answer?
Try the search facilty ( or read FAQ222-2244 on how to get better results.

What DotNet can do more than JAVA?
So, can I make an application in Java that can be accessed online?
In other words, can I write an application in JAVA that can be used as stand alone application and it can be used over the internet?
What is the differences between (JSP and J2EE)? Is there is any relation betweem them?
What is the differences between (VB.NET and ASP.NET)? Is there is any relation betweem them?
Please be patient with me guys

Put simply
If you can learn to develop Windows forms in VB.NET, and get accustomed to data handling, using datasets, tables (ADO.Net), then you will find it very easy to jump to creating a data based web page in ASP.Net. Some of the Windows and Web based controls are very similar in operation. Also .Net is very much about disconnected record sets, which lends itself very much towards Web based development also.
In ASP.Net, all the VB.Net code you write is executed on the Server, and any Client scripting is still done using Javascript or VB Script. You also need some knowledge of HTML, to be able to beautify your pages.
In my opinion, you have enough to learn swapping to VB.NET from VB6. Get a good grounding here, and dont try to run before you can walk.

...if it works dont mess with it
