VB6 > VB.NET upgrade

[Eddie1979]

We are about to look into upgrading our VB6 application to VB.NET. I am interested to hear any advice (or tales of woe!) anyone has on the best strategies for this. Some of our system is based on the following:

COM+ DLLs (written in VB6)
Crystal Reports 9
TrueDBGrid
VS Flex Grid
ADO recordsets

We use other technologies, but I think these are the more standard ones that a lot of people are familiar with. Any of your experience and advice will be highly appreciated.

Many thanks,
Eddie.
PS In our case a complete re-write is not an option for now at least.

Personally, I'd wait until that wasn't the case anymore rather than try to upgrade an existing application. If there isn't time to recreate from scratch then i'd have to question whether the upgrade was necessary at all.

yep, if you don't want to go all the way then stick with vb6, no need to upgrade.
