Hi Sheryar,
There is no C# version of InstantForum, as .Net Languages use a common language model, the two are should you desire, translatable to one another, C# to VB.net and vice versa, a quick cursory google search shows that there are several choices in terms of tools to allow you to do this, in my experience some are better than others, but there are little if any advantages to translation.

Regarding translation to .Net 2.0, there are always going to be errors on projects of this size when automatically translated by the wizard, alot of customers choose to do the translation by hand. However, the errors you see after the upgrade wizard has run, are easily correctable and very simple alterations, there as you say however, alot of them.

We are planning to release a .Net 2.0 Native version of InstantForum not long after the commercial release of InstantKB 2.0, this would save you having to translate the software to 2.0 yourself, however there are currently no plans for C# version.


Kindest Regards,

Is this still the plan?  I would love to see a .Net 2 version of the forums.  We have delayed deploying our licenses until the KB 2 is ready.  I don't want to force users to re-learn something since KB 2 looks like it is right around the corner.

Any idea on a timeframe for a .Net 2 version of the Forum?  It would be nice to be able to deploy both the KB 2 and Forum both as 2.0 assemblies.

I would not expect a C# version (too big a job to just make someone happy in their preferred lang).  I personally am a C# programmer, but since I can interface to the VB.NET code it doesn't really matter to me.
