If I am understanding you. You want convert your VB6 DLLs to .NET do this
by adding a class and your aspx.vb files (code behind) call the .vb files
in a similar way that you would call them in VB6

cSupportMember is a .vb file

Dim cSupport As New cSupportMember()
cSupport.insMemberPassword(AccountID, MemberID, UserID, UserID, True, EditorID)

Hello Sr,


I read somewhere that all .vb files need to be converted to dll and must
be placed in bin directory while deploying.Do you know more about it?

Anu,
Are you using VS.NET?

Simply add your .vb files to your ASP.NET project, when you compile the
project they will automatically be included in the .dll that is created for
all of your .aspx.vb files. This DLL will be placed in the bin folder of
your web project.

Alternatively you can create a Class Library project, place all of your .vb
files in this Class Library, then reference the Class Library from your Web
Project. VS.NET will place the DLL in your bin folder.

If you are not using VS.NET, you will need to manually compile your .vb
files into a class library (.dll) then place this dll in the bin folder of
your web project. From within your aspx pages you will need to manually
reference and import this class library.

Hope this helps
Jay

Hi Jay Harlow,

Thank you for information.

Yeah,I am using VS.net.So you mean all .vb(.aspx.vb and .vb) files will
be referred through a single Dll thats placed in Bin directory?

OK!!

I will try and if I get any more doubts will get back on this forum.

Anu
