Microsoft have just launched two Power Packs for VB.NET to help provide more functionality out of the box for VB.

PrintForm Component 1.0

With the new PrintForm component you can layout the Windows Form exactly as you want it and to print the form as a quick report

Printing can be done to printer , preview or file. To use the PrintForm component in c# just follow the instructions for VB. it seems to be a bit slow in the trial I did earlier but I will do some more tests.

Interop Forms Toolkit 1.0

Allows .NET forms to be embedded in VB applications , this is quite incredible it is now possible to continue to work on and maintain applications in VB while adding new code in .NET.

if you are still maintaining VB code and are hankering for some .NET time check this Power Pack out.
