   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 (the languages are different enough to   
   warrant separate newsgroup support). Look for newsgroups with either the   
   word "dotnet" or "vsnet" in their name.   
      
   For the microsoft news server, try these newsgroups for Visual Basic .NET   
   related questions...   
      
      microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb   
      microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.upgrade   
      microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.controls   
      microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.data   
      
   And these for more general .NET questions   
      
      microsoft.public.dotnet.general   
      microsoft.public.vsnet.general   
      
   Note: There are many other .NET newgroups (use the first three "fields" from   
   the last two as templates when searching for them), but the above ones   
   should get you started.
