Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Application development professionals reveal fear, uncertainty, and doubt when dealing with strategies and timelines for migrating Visual Basic 6 (VB6) apps to Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) 2005. The end of support for the VB6 IDE means that application development professionals need to triage their applications to decide whether to migrate, rewrite, or replace them.
