A quick post to let you all know that Paul Yuknewicz, Senior Program Manager on the VB Team, and myself will be presenting a webcast on upgrading VB6.0 applications to Visual Studio 2010, this Thursday at 9am PST. Here are some details on the event:
Title: MSDN Webcast: Visual Studio 2010 Ecosystem Series: Upgrading Applications from Visual Basic 6 to Visual Studio 2010 (Level 200)
Summary: Attend this webcast to discover how to use the latest version of ArtinSoft's Visual Basic Upgrade Companion (VBUC) to easily migrate applications developed in Microsoft Visual Basic 6 to both Microsoft Visual Basic .NET and C# using the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 development system. Now that the Upgrade Wizard no longer ships with Visual Studio, the VBUC provides a more powerful and flexible alternative to cost-effectively upgrade your applications to .NET, take advantage of the latest technology, and streamline your development process.

Today, as part of the Visual Studio 2010 launch, Microsoft published a video of my coworker, Esteban Brenes, doing a brief demo of the latest beta of the Visual Basic Upgrade Companion 4.0. In this video, version 4.0 of the VBUC is used to generate code that works correctly with Visual Studio 2010. This is part of the VSIP Partners CAN DO! series of videos, which can be seen in this link.
