I need to convert my winform VB.NET application to an ASP.NET application.
My current application has 4 forms, it reads a remote XML file, and uses a datagrid to collect user input and to create a report.
It is a very simple application, and I would like to know where to start to convert it to ASP.NET.

Should be fairly straightforward to port the functionality.

You should start by checking out the tutorials at the asp.net website.

It's as simple as start a new web project and create the current forms as WinForms. There is no magic tool that I am aware of that does this conversion.

You'll need a server to host the web application on as well.

Unless I am missing something, sounds very simple.

er, that would be WebForms for a browser-based solution, no?
Definitely a typo. WebForms is what he meant.
typo...sorry. I meant WebForms :)

It won't take very much by all accounts.

No one is going to be able to give you a "just do this" solution to your problem.

What you need to do is work through a couple of simple Web Forms examples and you'll soon see the similarities and be able to migrate the code.
