Re: VCL.NET or ASP.NET tools

I would like to migrate my win32 application to ASP.NET. I am now using
quite a lot 3rd party components like QG4, ReportBuilder, kbm, ect.Perhaps
I
will use only 1 or 2 3rd party components in my ASP.NET application in the
future.
Can u recommend some of my choices?

Well, first you have to make a choice:

- do you want to keep your Win32 application and _also_ have an ASP.NET
front-end OR
- not have your Win32 app any more, and _only_ have the new .net
application?

FWIW, I don't think it's going to be a neat port, if that's what you want to
do. Reporting is completely different in a web app. You'd do n-tier
differently in a web app (in particular you wouldn't use kbmmw any more).

Frankly, if it's a port (you no longer need the Win32 version) I'd start the
web app as a new project from scratch, and refactor code over as it's
relevant and as it's required.

If you want to keep the old app (i.e. you want Win32 + web front end) I'd
ask on the kbmmw newsgroups for the best approaches.
