answering my own question: 

VB.NET supports unicode (which isn't wholly supported in VB 6.0) so I
must use VB.NET for my indesign project.

I'm using lots of objects' methods and properties and advance features
(e.g. Masters) in my application which generates a Japanese/English
publication entirely in script. I haven't had any major stumbling
blocks yet. By far the worst thing is my inability to modify code in
the runtime debugger like I can in VB 6.0 (I've written entire
applications in debugging mode <hehe>.) So I find myself doing lots of
tests and such to understand the properties and behaviors of indesign
in VB 6.0, and then copying the code into VB.NET onces I get it down.

I very much want to develop my application in VB.NET so I'd like to know, can it be done or not? If it involves more work (i.e. variable declarations) I'm willing to pay the price. Just need to know what the issues are...
