What type of applications are the best candidates for migration?
Applications that are responsible for processing important business data are highly valuable to your business. If there are no other applications, such as third-party off-the-shelf products, available to process this data, ensuring the lifespan of your application by upgrading it to Visual Basic .NET may be a logical step. Applications with inputs and outputs based on legacy file formats that are not easily translatable may be problematic to upgrade. On the other hand, moving an application to Visual Basic .NET and upgrading data to a more general format, such as XML, may leverage your application for future enhancements or changes in technology.
