Abstract:	Microsoft's newest version of Visual Basic .Net (VB .Net), is a huge leap forward, recreating Visual Basic as a full-fledged object-oriented programming environment. At Zagat Survey LLC, the decision to start early with a complete rewrite in VB Net was a practical matter. While the cost of scrapping an existing application and building a new one is substantial, so is just reworking the old code. The cost of moving applications is part of the reason why Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP is taking a gradual approach to shifting its portfolio of Visual Basic applications to VB Net. For most corporate IT shops, whether to move to VB .Net is still an open question. There is no immediate requirement to rewrite or convert most legacy Visual Basic applications.
