Derek talks about his own .NET programming experiences and shares some good practices.<br /><br />"I've been working with the beta version of the .NET Compact Framework (.NET cf) for a while now and I thought it was high time to try and distill some of those experiences, hopefully making the experience of switching from eVB to .NET a little bit easier. The latest poll on DEVBUZZ indicates that a large number of you are converting so here goes - hopefully we can avoid mentioning polymorphism more than once (catch done!). I'm also writing this for the traditional VB developer wanting to get into .NET cf. Having never been a hard core C programmer of any obvious talent myself, this article is definitely skewed towards the above audience. As a VB programmer I have unpleasant memories of methodologies attempting to encapsulate object orientated (OO) using an architecture patently unsuited to it. Thankfully the arrival of .NET CF has changed all that!"
