To adopt the CLR naming rules for the integer types. The CLR defines Int16,
Int32 and Int64. The VB code editor will rename Long to Int32 and Integer to
Int16, or alternatively the compiler will generate a non-fatal warning to remind
you to chanage Long to Int32 and Integer to Int16.

YES. This solution causes *zero* problems for any of the other .net
languages. It will scale painlessly into the future (if we ever need an
int128). It will also prevent the problems with accidentally converting old
code more than once, and pasting old code into a new project

If votes meant anything, those of us raising ANY kinds of concerns
over VB.Net would have been voted out of the newsgroup by the cheerleaders
weeks ago.

I don't think it's even arguable that the universally acclaimed changes
outnumber the ones that have fostered disagreement. There's LOADS of
stuff they got right the first time.

Yes, unambiguous, easily extendible,... although I do not see a need for the
compiler warning.
