   Almost everybody in this newsgroup is using VB6 or lower.   
      
   While you may get a stray answer to VB.NET (including VB2003   
   and VB2005 which has dropped .NET from its name) questions here,   
   you should ask them in newsgroups devoted exclusively to   
   .NET programming.   
      
   You risk getting confusing and/or misleading replies.   
      
   Look for newsgroups with either the word "dotnet" or "vsnet" in   
   their name.   
      
   For the microsoft news server, try these newsgroups...   
      
   news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.dotnet.general   
   news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb   
   news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.vsnet.general   
   news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.vstudio.general   
   news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.vstudio.setup   
   news://msnews.microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.upgrade   
   news://msnews.microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.controls   
   news://msnews.microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.data   
      
   There are some others, but these should get you started.
