Release 2.31 contains many exciting new features and improvements in accuracy:

New Features:

• All the reports have been rewritten and are now exportable in over a dozen different formats, including PDF, Word, Excel, CSV, Html, PowerPoint, etc.

• Late binding is now being detected.  Late binding is supported in VB.Net, but not in C#.

• Performance improvements - approximately 30% improvement in conversion speed. 

Accuracy improvements:

Improvements when converting older, upgraded VB6 -> VB.Net programs:

• Improved accuracy when converting assignments to function names for return values, common in upgraded VB6 programs.
• The converter now warns on late binding, which is common in VB6 upgraded projects.
• Improved accuracy in programs which use COM references, specifically resulting in C# compiler error CS1705 CS1545, and CS1546.

Improvements when converting newer VB.Net projects:

• Improved conversions of complex With statements.
• Fixed rare error when converting classes with multiple generic constraints.
• Fixed bug with complex If statements and implicit line continuation (2010).
• System.Drawing.Size is now initialized to Size.Empty if initialized to Nothing in VB.Net.
• Fixed problem when converting complex inheritance scenarios.
• Corrected rare error in VB2008 projects when converting strings which contained LINQ statements.
• Many other items fixed or accuracy improved - too numerous to list.

Over 100 new projects added to the test:

• This release was tested on 5,710 projects, producing over 4 million lines of C# code.  All projects converted without C# compiler errors.
