I have a state government job in the US. I must **convert a VB 6 app into Visual Basic .NET**. The whole client-side app just loads an assortment of big text files into MS SQL Server database tables. It does this using DTS. ***The whole app already works fine***--*in VB 6* (loading big government text files with DTS in the VB into it's 1 SQL Server database's tables). **I must just make sure that it works *exactly the same* after it is converted to VB.NET**--*that is what you have to do*. I could run the VB 6 app through Visual Studio 2005's default converter and then take it from there. That is what I want and I am going to do that. But, so you can start fresh on it from the VB 6 original, I will send it to you in its original VB 6 version--before it is run thru VS 2005's converter--So *you* can then run it thru VS 2005's converter from scratch and then finish converting it to VB.NET from there. **--Getting it to work exactily as it worked in VB6. With the smallest amount of lines changed as possible. Make the smallest amount of changes possible.** I would like you to convert it from its old RDO to [login to view URL] in the future in a separate job. With the converter one can keep using the old RDO and VB6 controls. If this job goes well, from time to time, I will have smaller jobs too in the long-run. This could be the makings of a very small but perminant long-term business relationship. We can correspond and work together. I'm a new entry-level programmer so none of the programming techniques will be advanced. --But the big old VB app I work on is complex due to its bulk of functions and size. It takes a long time to figure out how to make a very small change to it. And it is very sensitive about what it does with the text files. It is comming up with important statistics for my local community. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform Windows XP, SQL Server, DTS, Visual Basic .NET, VB
