If you mean Visual Basic 2005 then you can use the same code in Visual Basic 2008. A converter dialog box will appear when you open the solution file with 2008.

I'm currently using Qios and it was working great until a few days ago when i didn't even touch it.. Warnings were appearing which prevented me from viewing my main form. Which is quite annoying.... :|

Okay with QJOS Devsuite how can I use it to make the tab bar like in IE 8 and still have a toolbar to put stuff on it or is that not possible?
