Eelko--

I like the VB6/VBScript way of working with arrays--that I quickly create an array containing multiple data types:

myArray = Array("4p6", 2, 44.6, myDocument)

By contrast, the .NET array seems silly to me. It was a joke, but I really do hate a bunch of things about .NET:

* Performance of compiled applications.
* User interface.
* Loss of Variant data type.

In trying to make VB into a "real" programming language, they've made it a much less effective scripting langauge (if I want a real programming language, I'll use C++). Unless I need something specific from .NET, I'll deploy scripts in VBScript, instead.
Thanks,

Ole
