We are upgrading a VB6 project to VB.NET. I ran it though an upgrade utility (Artinsoft). I guess the question is where is the GUI. In VB6, there is a form designe and Object mode. That does not exist in vb.net correct???
It looks like during the upgrade the entire GUI, the forms, the buttons, they are all gone. None of that was upgraded. So does the entire GUI have to be recreated in asp.net or something???
Well I'm wondering if in VB.NET are we suppose to create the entire GUI via a web page??? I don't even see the traditional drawing tools and GUI toolbox that its VB6 to create forms, tab dialog boxes, calendar controls, etc. Where are these things in VB.NET
2010???

You can create WebForms or WinForms (Windows Forms). This is determined by the type of Project you are working with.
There are graphical tools for creating both kinds of forms.
