DX 9 will be able to work with .net so yes VB.net will fully support it!

Dx 9 comes with SDK's for Visual Basic and Visual C++
i'm not sure but i think it works only with 5.0+
i dunno, works fine with Visual Basic 6.0 not that i use it cause Visual Basic with Dx is S-L-O-W

was suppose to be last month, but Microsoft never make bloody deadlines. Just think they can keep everyone waiting all the time - sadly they can

Visual Basic.Net is the latest released
based on the .Net architecture
There was VB - VB6 and VB.Net is basically VB7 with a weitrd name to coincide with MS's whole new .Net framework
makes everything sound like it'll work together with no problems

hey all

thanks. i downloaded Directx9 SDK today.
Directx works almost fully with VB.NET.
Direct Graphic and its shading programming
works fast and fine. i love VB.NET.
also it works fast as making directx program with C.

.NET Framework runtime is still need it but new windows
will have it as standard anyway,

maybe you should get the benchmark DBP and VB.NET&Directx9.0
you will see which one is faster and
why i quit program with DBP from today.
or
just download Directx9.0 SDK for VB.Net
and try DirectX Samples.

good bye all.

too much isnt good...

Traitor! But anyway, DX9 is available and works with all .NET languages (even the non-microsoft ones).

It is not available for Win95 or WinNT4 and prior. Looks like MS has officially dropped support for them.
