Six years after VB.NET was released, Microsoft is still slowly working towards a true migration path for VB 6 applications. Recently Microsoft released "Visual Basic Power Packs 3.0". This release adds the Data Repeater, an important control for layouts.
The Data Repeater is based on the VB 6 layout control. It takes a set of controls and replicates them for each row in a data source. The controls can be laid out horizontally or vertically and support scrolling.
Also included in this release are the Lines and Shapes controls and the VB 6 style Printer Library from previous releases. All three include a bootstrapper package making it easier to include them in ClickOnce and MSI based deployments.
While this would certainly be useful for developers who are just now starting their conversion process, one has to wonder if there are any VB 6 applications left that will be converted. By now most companies have probably either made the conversion or resigned themselves to starting a new version from scratch.
The Power Pack is available from Microsoft's Download Center.
