I develop in Visual Basic. Can I still use this forum? Is there a VB version?

There isn't (and won't be) VB version. However, C# is not that hard to learn (I've moved from VB to C# myself too) and it can run together with VB.NET stuff (this is one major trait of .NET, isn't it?). I presume you mean VB.NET, right? When I post FP:Ederon in a topic, I'm leaving my footprint there so I can track it once I get into coding/supporting.

Hey Diane! I'm a hard-core VB developer. I started learning C# when I found YAF, and never looked back! In your solution (VB), simply right click and select Add>New Web Site, then navigate to where your YAF instance is and select that folder. This will ADD the YAF project to yours. When you compile, it will create one site. Ederon is correct, the language something is written in is irrelevent. .Net supprts VB, C#, C++ and J#, or you can create you own language! Visual Studio compiles everything into IML (intermediate markup language) then uses IML to create the DLL files the site needs. I have one project I wrote in VB, included YAF (C#), has several Java applets for server controls (J#) and some very old COM port communication protocols written in C++. VS compiles them all with that irritating "publish succedded" message, which actually means "...is that all you got?". I would suggest taking a short C# course at your local collage/university (I took a 6 week beginers). This will be more than enough to get started with YAF. Plus, it will make your resume/CV look even better! Besides, remember the code may be C#, but the pages are ASP markup whih is the same no matter what language you use.

Thank you both!
I knew that .net handles multiple languages, but I've had trouble adding C# files to a VB site. Most of my sites are small and relatively simple, so I've never had more that one website in one solution before. Doing it that way never occurred to me.
I do want to learn C#, but I don't want to delay this project while I'm learning it. It's great to know I don't have to!

If your using a non-Express version of Visual Studio (VS), using the "..allow this precompiled site to be updateable.." option during publish with multiple languages can sometimes cause a problem. No idea why, something I have noticed in VS2005 and 2008 STD and TS. Just uncheck this option and it works fine. It's amazing how small sites, mutate in demons from hell, overnight! .....the man in black fled across the desert..........and the gunslinger followed.....

Why not use P2P (Azureus, eDonkey, etc) to share? Then you could just publish the torrent file! .....the man in black fled across the desert..........and the gunslinger followed.....

I'm having a problem adding this to my vb.net site because I have some classes in app_code folder that are in vb and the YAF code is in C. Is there a work around for this?
I get this error
The files '/App_Code/ExtendedControls.vb' and '/App_Code/YAF/YAF/RssFeed.cs' use a different language, which is not allowed since they need to be compiled together.

Make sure your VB code is in it's own file and namespace to be sure it compiles correctly. .....the man in black fled across the desert..........and the gunslinger followed.....
