From: Ginny Caughey on 8 Sep 2006 07:37 Rene, Search on Google for Reflector and Lutz Roeder and you'll find it. Reflector has been around as long as there have been beta versions of .NET, and it is updated with each new version. There are also 3rd party add-ins that can convert what you see with Reflector to files or even whole projects. Still, if you are looking for the easiest way to get lots of VO code to ..NET, the easiest will still be Vulcan. Although it is possible to convert the MSIL generated by Vulcan to C# or VB or even Delphi, I'm not sure why a VO developer would choose to do that. -- Ginny "Rene J.
