Why should you be ashamed for things that haven't got your focus? If your focus is on C# and maybe some other languages (not VB.Net) I think your search is nothing to be ashamed of. VB.Net doesn't have my focus, still I've had to work on one VB.Net project almost a year ago. I told them that my productivity would be lower, but they accepted that.

@Ayende - the shame is not in the search, it's in the ";"

:)

VB.NET is quite cool, combined with NHQG

Mark,

I did roughly three years of VB & VBScript, and I am still a VB.Net reader.

It is the writing of which that is hard :-)

Also, did you notice how I ended the query?

Try http://www.harding.edu/fmccown/vbnet_csharp_comparison.html

As a previously pure c# developer working in a VB shop I find it invaluable for the "simple" things.

Sadly, this was one of my searches today:

+asp +StoredProcedure +"out parameter"

At least yours was still .NET!

Every time I have to use a cursor in SQL, I have to lookup the syntax. That's a good thing though, because that means I hardly ever use cursors.

It's good that we can Google for these little aide-memoires - leaves our brains clear for actual thinking.

Nothing to be ashamed of, I would end up looking the same thing should I try to mash up some VB...
