If the 'Visual Basic' is the VB6 I know, then
The difference between VB6 and VB.NET is the way VB6, VB.NET pass the address
or memory space of your data when you call an external Function in a DLL.

1) VB.NET obey the rule passed by value (ByVal) and it will copy the entire
image of your data and pass the address into your external Function (in a DLL, etc).

2) VB6 does not do that. The proof of this is your Function can manipulate the
data (Often a ByVal String) and when the function return, the VB6 can see what
was changed with that space.

3) I like this VB6 behaviour for peace sake. Lately, I had a DLL use in VB6 and
ported it into VB.NET and It does not work the way I know it, only to find-out
I had to create another Function that accept a pointer to String address,
(char **) in C/C++, Or create a public structure and put all those String
variables that previously use as pass ByVal in VB6 application---lots of work,
but that what porting is about---to make your existing codes
work on another environment.
