Default The end of VBA?

"Harald Staff" wrote in message
...
Visual Basic.net and C# are saif to be the two best integrated languages

in
Visual Studio.net . Both languages create identical compiled files, and
there is no difference in performance for "similar programming" between

the
two. VB6 is already removed from the market, but still widely used by
countless people, VB.net is very much alive and I believe it stays that

way.

Actually, I'll have to disagree with you here. Though they "should" produce
the same MSIL, they don't. They are very similar in terms of performaces,
but I belive that in very certain cases, C# has an edge, and the whole
unsafe thing is pretty good when you have to Interop with COM, it can make
things a lot easier.
