Why don't you just use the library as is, adding a reference to it in your VB project. You don't have to convert it to VB for that, you can use any .NET dll.
And if it is for learnig purpose, why using a tool ?

I think it's easier to convert from C# to VB than the other way around... VB is just more cooperative (so to say). You should probably give a try at converting it yourself so you add to your experience.

Their are many Tools available on Google to convert C# code to VB.Net. However their is certainly no guaranty of accuracy of these Tools.

Thank you Espen. :)
As suggested there are a number of tools available.
But none of them do a complete job - so you will need to do some of the conversion yoruself as well.

Good point :)

Thank you Espen.
As you have probably seen, there are quite a few tools to convert small chunks of code from C# to VB, but I've never seen a complete project converter. I use DeveloperFusion[^] to convert the code. Since it is supposed to be your project, don't you think it would be a good idea if you did do some of it yourself?

Here is a converter application Telerik JustDecompile[^]

BUT please beaware that the conversion is not 100% so you will need to correct some of the errors, the most common conversion problem I have seen with these applications is that it normally doesn't do the conversion for the custom event handlers properly.

How is this an any better answer than Solution 2 posted 3 years ago?

Please do not post solutions to old posts unless they add something new. You will just get repeatedly reported until your solution is eventually deleted
C#
script.Append("$(function() {");
script.AppendFormat("$('#{0}').datepicker(", txt_Date.ClientID);
script.Append("{");
script.AppendFormat(@"showOn: 'button',buttonImage: '{0}',", "App_Themes/Default/CalendarImages/DatePicker.gif");
script.Append(@"buttonImageOnly: true,changeMonth: true,changeYear: true, showAnim: ''});});");
