never used VB.NET and i'm quite curious about it --- how much does it differ from the conventional VB series & how easy/difficult would it be for a VB6 programmer to migrate/learn it.

Well, to me VB.NET is a completely different language from VB6.
But if you have programmed in VB6 it will be easy for you to migrate to VB.NET.
You just have to start thinking more in terms of Objects.
If you are still coding in VB6, I'll advice you to move to VB.NET because it gives
you the full power of a modern day object oriented programming language.

between vb6 and .net is pretty large sea, but if you are familiar with vb6 you'll have a ferry ride across, like ig said its object oriented that means a different paradigm for development, but the strength that it draws from the wealth of OOP is worth the migration. join the bandwagon

1-You can run both VB.NET and VB6 on the same computer. They two different things that do not conflict.
2- Yeah dotNET comes with documentation (A lot). The documentation helps a lot as a refference material but
getting a book will really increase your speed.
