MSDN Magazine Editor in Chief, Howard Dierking, announced a number of changes to the magazine in the January 2009 Editor’s Note. Among that list of changes was the following excerpt:

“Furthermore, we recently began moving all of our article code samples to MSDN Code Gallery. This will allow our team to be much more agile in managing and updating code samples as needed. In that agility, we are now also able to translate all C# code samples into Visual Basic.”

* GOING FORWARD, ALL MSDN MAGAZINE ARTICLES WRITTEN IN C# WILL ALSO INCLUDE CODE DOWNLOADS FOR VB.NET ONLINE! *

So, where can you find the VB code?

First click on the following link in the article online:

You will arrive at the corresponding resource page on Code Gallery, with the “Home” tab in view:

Select the “Downloads” tab, and then click on the name ending in “_VB” in the “Releases” pane on the right-hand side:

Download the zip, and enjoy. 🙂

Thank you Howard for making this possible, and to Aaron Dargel for writing all the VB code!
