How does the upgrade wizard deal with commonly-used functions and objects?
Visual Basic .NET provides a compatibility library for many Visual Basic 6.0 functions and objects, to ease upgrade while maintaining the functional behavior of your application. Whenever appropriate, the upgrade wizard will substitute a function in your original code with the Visual Basic .NET equivalent available in the compatibility library. The upgrade wizard will also add a reference to the Visual Basic 6.0 compatibility library namespace (Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility) to your solution whenever any such substitutions are made. The compatibility library will minimize the amount of effort required to upgrade. This library attempts to duplicate the functional behavior of the original Visual Basic 6.0 functions, but the functionality upgraded to members of that library should be considered as the initial attempt to upgrade that will leverage the application toward a more extensive assimilation to Visual Basic .NET. Some of the functionality in the compatibility library is also
