Agreed, Marty, and hats off to you for discovering/illustrating this mind-meld. My point was that MS does not make this transparent, and it takes guys like you to point it out. You should be on the MS payroll! On the other hand, if you were, then how much of your exquisite insights could we trust?

Not that difficult if you need to merge the two code bases as some things are easier and quicker to write in dotNet like Web Services and xml reader classes Some standalone .exe files still required a runtime install with VB6 and VB.Net requires the dotNet Framework installed.
