Hi everyone,

I'm extremly new to this and (I'm just an intern/apprentice in an office) trying to understand /mess with some programs.

Is there a way to convert a c# project (i.E. Simple Active directory Browser: Simple Active Directory Browser[^] into vb.net? I startet learning a book ("Windows scripting lernen" - Holger Schwichtenberg) and currently it is easier for me to understand vb ...

I'm using Visual Studio Community 2015.

Any help would be appreciated and thanks for taking your time reading /understanding my problem : )

(Sorry for my bad english - not my native language)

Why don't you just use the dll compiled from the VB code? VB and C# produce the same .NET IL code. So compiled dll from C# will be usable in your VB project.

If, on the other hand, your goal is to learn how to translate, having it done by a tool would defeat the purpose. Better learn the basics of C# and translate to VB yourself; it will be much more educative.

Otherwise, there exist some free tools to do the conversion; a simple 'c# to vb.net' search on google leads to about 16,600,000 results :)
