The best route is to import the vb6 project into VS2008, which will attempt to convert it to vb.net. Then open the project in a later version of Visual Studio.

The best route is to import the vb6 project into VS2008, which will attempt to convert it to vb.net. Then open the project in a later version of Visual Studio. As far as I know VS2008 was the last version to support conversion. I've never actually tried this, having not had the pleasure of being a VB programmer. From what I remember, small projects tended to migrate reasonably well but larger ones could be problematic.
