I did a search on VB.NET and nothing came up, so if this was asked before, I apologize.
Anyway, I'm just wondering if Steve ever considered moving to VB.NET from VB6? That would solve some problems like the mouse scroll wheel.
Yes, we've had the .NET discussion (it might even be near the beginning of the current official suggestions thread). And, IIRC, there's a whole thread (or fragment thereof) on the mouse scroll wheel issue somewhere.

PS - I've noticed some of the more recent users starting a lot of new threads in suggestions and mechanics in the last week or so. There are several places on the board (such as the "where should I post" FAQ) where it is explained that suggestions should be made in the official suggestions thread (rather than by starting a new thread), as this is the place that Steve uses as his "filing cabinet". More recently, that thread got flooded with a lot of OT discussions about suggestions, which drove the noise/signal ratio in the thread up, so Steve opened up a discussion in the "suggestions about suggestions" thread about how we should manage the Suggestions board to optimize results. Whatever the answer will be, Steve indicated in the post that one thread doesn't work:
One thread for each suggestion is no good either as most of the time I will read a single suggestion thread, think it sounds like a good idea, don't have time to act on it immediately and then forget about it when I get distracted by something else.
So gang, could we please post questions/suggestions like this either in The Academy or in the official suggestions thread or in Aurora Chat? I'm sorry to sound like a broken record here, but swamping Steve with noise is not the way to get our suggestions implemented. Thanks!
