(This is probably better posted to microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb if 
your server carries it.)

All of the VB.Net editions I've tried include a VB-to-VB.Net importer; that's 
the easiest way you're likely to find. Simply open the .vbp in VS2010 and it 
should do whatever it needs to do.

Note that the importer is far from perfect -- for anything more complex than 
the most trivial programs, you'll have to do a lot of clean-up. A *lot*. 
Depending on the project, it might be better to just start over from scratch. 
Or not.
